Donald Trump signs anti-abortion advice law surrounded by men
 

in one of his first acts as President.........


Welcome to the 1920's :worry:


Donald Trump today banned the US government from giving funding to health groups that offer abortion counselling.

The President signed an order reinstating the “global gag rule”, which denies US foreign aid to groups who "perform or actively promote" terminations.

He was photographed signing the bill in the Oval Office, flanked by eight members of his staff, all of whom are men.

Vice President and anti-abortion campaigner Mike Pence, chief of staff Reince Priebus, his son-in-law Jared Kushner and top advisor and former far-right website owner Steve Bannon were all present.

There did not appear to be any women present for the signing.

Shocking.

lets hope it allows more innocent harmless healthy babies the chance to live their lives

Innocent harmless healthy babies don't form until well into a pregnancy, before that it's alot of cells. Women should have control over their bodies not be told what they can and can't do by a bunch of old men

The guys just an idiot. Hes ancient, old fashioned, and honestly thick. And so is anybody who agrees this was a great move by a great man. One week in and America is fifty years back.
I was more than prepared to give him a chance, I cant help but think its going to get even worse, this man is stupid.

Thats a sexist ageist post:nono: This is about the rights of babies to live a live, millions of them. If the mother is healthy and hasnt been raped then the rights of the unborn baby is more important than the mother

So if you think abortion is murder, I mean truly believe that then why is it ok to murder a baby if the woman was raped?

Your acting as if the abortion is the beginning of the problem. Kind of like how a 5 year old might see it. Perhaps dive into a few minutes of critical thinking before your next post.
Rape is often a problem. Men need to stop that. Pay divide, health concerns, the list is honestly endless.
Each case is different, the problem never starts with abortion and blame should never be put there unless youre a 5 year old with a very basic outlook on the world around you. its the things that lead up to the abortion.
Donald Trump thinks this way because he hasnt had an education for 50 odd years. This is the first of many lessons to come about why we shouldnt put an underqualified man in charge, his competitors would have had experience in researching and debating this topic. The majority would come to the same conclusion that fits in with modern society. Donald did not.
Donald hasnt had an education in 50 years, a 5 year old has barely ever been educated. What is your excuse?

That would be an ecumenical matter!!

In all seriousness, this man is truly on a path of destruction and we have a front row seat, I was discussing on another thread about long fought for rights, this man with one swipe of a pen has rendered those rights null and void.
The question is, what's next?...

mmhhmm, it's a scary time in the world. It still baffles me how any woman could have ever voted for such a sexist dinosaur like him

In other news: MTV has renewed Teen Mom for four more seasons.

Good luck to America...

Maybe he's got a stake in that show or something :think:

Delighted tens of millions of innocent unborn babies will now get a better chance to live. Amazed some here don't see it from their point of view? Women and men, need to be better educated, need better support , need better access to contraception, need better advice and time and options such as having their baby fostered or adopted. Parents who have abortions for reasons other than rape, incest or health risks, often say they regret having their baby killed , for the rest of their lives. Give more support, more knowledge, more time, more education, more options, no doubt they would in many cases allow the baby a chance to live. Lets hope that is the end result of this move by trump. Put more money into supporting the babies being allowed to live. Thats the truly humane thing to do.

ehem?

Me too, mind you the recent media spotlight on consent here is worrying... there have been a lot of polls and discussions on chat shows about whether women who drink are at fault if they are assaulted, or if the way women dress could be a green light to a potential abuser...
An ill wind is blowing.

yup like I said welcome to the 1920's

Any woman that supports Trump has no self respect.

He's not stopping abortion, he's just saying you have to pay for it yourself, instead of everyone else paying for you.

Niamh very good posts I agree. R.

small steps I think, it'll end up costing the tax payer more I reckon when they end up having to support single teenage parents instead....although maybe he'll get some workhouses open to take care of that?

Thank You Ronald Rogers

Not For USA


There will be some states that will
ignore this new rule

That statement is divisive and sexist and anti democratic :nono:53% of white women voted trump, over 40% of all women voted trump. american women are smart, they know he will do an infinitely better job with the economy and trade which in turn will help everyone, men and women.

since when do liberals care about tax payers money? everytime they run a country the economy goes bankrupt

Thank you Alf
FACTS at last
