JD Vance on Rape

It’s astounding he’s coming right out and saying it like this. Pro-abortion measures are on the ballot in several republican states, most notably Florida. They keep this up, it quite possibly could put that state in play, or at at least make them spend resources there to defend Scott’s seat they’d rather use elsewhere.
 
Should have maybe gone with the word horrible.

But his views are going to be very unpopular so the Harris campaign should lean into it hard.

Once Harris get's her VP squared away they need to start "Operation get JD Vance into a VP debate" and they need to play up the VP debate as much as possible.
 
Was there any vetting process?

I saw the line of thinking that Trump picked Vance to run up his margins with conservatives thinking he already had Biden beat. There had been a good deal of concern from pro-lifers that Trump was abandoning them. So Vance may have been a pick to try to keep those voters onside.

Part of me wonders if Biden's timing of dropping out wasn't in part a strategy to get Trump to make a bad pick.
 
No. Peter Thiel and E-loon snapped their fingers and Trump jumped. The guy doesn’t have a working synapse anymore: just responds to $$.
Trump has always responded to $$$. That's his calling card.
 
Being Trump's VP pick, I'd expect nothing different from him on those topics.

Even as totally sick and wrong as it is.


Going by the looks of most of the crowds at MAGA rallies, 'rape and incest' is not an inconvenience to most the attendees; males especially.
Lots of magats, on this very site, who can also call their mother and father, aunt and uncle.
 
Oh legislation that bans birth control are coming. Right Wing Influencers and think tanks are already chumming the water for it.
I don’t think they are brave enough to put that into legislation …..but they nominated Trump 3X so nothing is off limits, I suppose.
 
And it's not the woman's fault. The government forcing her to carry to term and deliver a constant reminder of that nightmare is just disgusting. As is a man calling it "inconvenient". JFC
At least he didn’t call it legitimate…
Exactly. He's a mess politically. Clearly doesn't favor some of these ultra socially conservative positions but is dumb enough to surround himself inwith people that hold them. (Granted, the pool of people that might want to be associated with his campaign might be rather small)
It’s confounding - Trump had NEVER had firm politician positions, aside from what will benefit him or get him the loudest applause line from his followers.

Has nothing to do with bravery - they think they know best on this.

There’s no doubt in my mind that if they think they can get away with it, they’ll try to do it.
 
I predict that Trump will drop Vance immediately after the Democratic convention in an attempt to shift the narrative and try to dominate the news cycle.

Maybe he'll pull a Kamala Chameleon and do a flip flop like she's doing today on everything she said in the past?
 
I'm pro choice except when it's rape or incest.
Fair enough. Now you need to find the money to provide full prenatal care and fund day cares so moms can work. You should also fund comprehensive, age-appropriate sex ed starting in fourth grade and make contraceptives easily and anonymously available to sexually active teens.

If you care for the kids, of course.

BTW, did you know the abortion rate in 2019 was lower than it was prior to Roe v Wade becoming law? Interesting.
