i was an Obama guy 2012 (barely too young to vote,) Bernie 2016 (voted Hillary,) Andrew Yang 2020, (didn’t vote.) Trump x Vance is the only way forward if we want a sovereign nation based on individual liberty, freedom of speech, & bodily autonomy

Can you explain the bodily autonomy argument? Having a hard time drawing the line from “overturn roe” to “the only candidate supporting bodily autonomy”

this might turn into to a bit of a novella, few points to cover Roe was an example of judicial activism, in other words, creating law from the bench rather than in the legislature. Even Ruth Bader Ginsburg felt Roe was a mistake, and should have been a state’s rights issue. https://www.law.uchicago.edu/news/justice-ruth-bader-ginsburg-offers-critique-roe-v-wade-during-law-school-visit unfortunately, the Harris campaign and legacy media are outright liars on this issue. what began my political shift in 2020 was having time to sit in the house and watch Trump’s speeches and press conferences instead of listening to what the news said he said was a bit gut wrenching to find out that when he said “there were fine people on both sides,” his very next sentence was “and i’m not talking about the neo-nazis and the white supremacists. they should be totally condemned.” when i had been told for 3 years by the news that he called Nazis fine people 1/n

the more i listened to Trump speak, instead of what the news said he said, the more i found a wide gap between the truth and their reporting, and was shocked to find that even though he’s abrasive, he was making a lot of sense overturning Roe was a correction of our governance system. Congress creates laws, the Executive enacts them, the Courts enforce and check for their Constitutionality. the Supreme Court is not supposed to be making up laws from the bench Trump & Vance have been very clear: this is now a state’s rights issue. if California wants to allow abortions up to 9 months, while that’s a vile aberration imo, they may do so. Vance’s thinking has evolved, they’ve both been clear that they understand that in some circumstances abortion is necessary and that, in their opinion, it should be a rare and sad event unfortunately, 2 decades of Lindsay Graham being a controlled opposition lunatic calling for nationwide bans + the outright lies being told about Trump x Vance leads us here 2/n
