    yes, she has given strong lip service to women’s rights, but the Democrats have always done that with everything

    lip service with no plans or intent

      she has given strong lip service to women’s rights, but the Democrats have always done that with everything

      And the dems have a great track record supporting and expanding Women’s rights. It was the GOP and their judges who overturned Roe while restricting women’s rights in every state they can.

      lip service with no plans or intent

      Only of you get your news straight from Trump. Here, in reality, that’s obviously not true

      I don’t disagree about her disappointing stance on immigration but you’re smoking something if you don’t think she’s going to fight for women’s reproductive autonomy.

        disappointing stance? it is the exact same response as Trump

        strictly controlled closed borders with no clear path to citizenship

          Yea, that’s fucking disappointing. I’m not saying Trump is better… I’m disappointed Harris is that far to the right on what should be a common sense issue. I’d much rather we destroy shitty tools like the H1B visa that lock in immigrants to a single employer denying them any bargaining power for wages and other benefits and depriving domestic workers of bargaining power by undercutting them than keep out people fleeing unstable countries that America unstablized who mostly gravitate to low paying jobs that Americans don’t want anyways.

          Immigration policy in the US is fucking dumb.

      You would think 50 years of lip service about women’s rights might convince people they are not telling the truth in their intentions.
