Biden’s top priority for a second term: restoring abortion rights - eviltoast
“It is unfathomable that women today wake up in a country with less rights than their ancestors had years ago,” Biden's deputy campaign manager said.

…

“The president has been adamant that we need to restore Roe. It is unfathomable that women today wake up in a country with less rights than their ancestors had years ago,” Fulks said.

Biden has been poised to run on what has been described as the strongest abortion rights platform of any general election candidate as he and his allies look to notch a victory in the first presidential election since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022.

Last month, Biden seized on a case in Texas, where a woman, Kate Cox, was denied an abortion despite the risk to her life posed by her pregnancy.

“No woman should be forced to go to court or flee her home state just to receive the health care she needs,” Biden said of the case. “But that is exactly what happened in Texas thanks to Republican elected officials, and it is simply outrageous. This should never happen in America, period.”

    Then what the fuck is Biden going to do in his second term? You just said he can’t do anything.

      If the house and senate don’t go blue? Or if they do? Because I assure you I much prefer him vetoing republicans to trump encouraging them

        Welp, unfortunately Biden has decided he’d rather block strikes, fuck the BBB and support genocide over getting my vote so…

        Then explain it to me. What does “prioritizing” mean? What the fuck can Biden do and why should I vote for him “prioritizing” abortion rights?

              No. I do not have to prove that I didn’t say something you claimed I said. It is not my job to prove that you didn’t lie. It is yours. If I said Biden can’t do anything, quote me. If I didn’t say it, be an adult and admit you lied.

                Buddy, four comments in and you haven’t given a single example. Biden can’t do anything about abortion rights and you fucking know it. (And I know he wouldn’t do anything about it even if he could because he’s a fucking piece of shit.) Take the L and let the grown ups talk.

                  Wow. You can’t admit you lied. Amazing. It was such an absolutely blatant lie. Everyone can see you lied. It’s undeniable that you lied.

                  But you know what to do if you want to prove you didn’t lie. Go for it.
