Biden's campaigning in Florida hoping to pick off that increasingly red state, which he might do on the strength of the pro-choice movement.

 

Trump is in court fighting to stay out of jail.

 

Ya, Dems are in a panic!

Biden isn't going to pick off Florida. It is almost assuredly going to Trump.

 

But Biden has about a 2:1 cash advantage and is outspending the Trump campaign 8:1. Florida is a very expensive media market, so my guess is that Biden is trying to put Trump in a position to spend some of his limited resources there, which will create bigger advantages for Biden in the actual swing states.

Lmao.  A thread for the msm parrots to show everyone how out of touch they are 

 

Yeah. Florida. 

 

And yeah.  Biden has most of the big money behind him. And why they are representative of the big money. 

 

Lol

Biden thinking he can win Florida because of abortion is akin to Trump thinking he can win NY because of left-wing antisemitism and crime. 
 

Equally unlikely, especially given there is word DeSantis will take a more prominent role attacking Biden for Trump this Summer.

Well, sure. anti-immigration crusades have been going on ever since the white man came to these shores.

Abortion defenders have done extremely well all over the country, even in deeply red states. And Trump is starting to smell like death warmed over. 

 

Florida is in play, IMO

I don’t know anyone who is against LEGAL immigration…But the fake asylum stuff, going on now, that Biden keeps trying to gaslight everyone about, is not that…👍

You are delusional, Trump wins Florida by at least 500k. I may as well state the Bills have a chance at drafting MHJ without trading multiple ones, it could happen in everyone in Florida goes brain dead.

From all the derogatory comments and opinions I hear in my travels around the State I'm wondering if Biden is even going to win New Jersey.  The consensus is life under Biden sucks and under Trump it wasn't so bad.

Thats the problem?  kind of seems specific.  projecting again?

 

pretty sure the number one reason for abortion is Affordability.

 

A 2013 studyTrusted Source analyzed the reasons people seek abortions in the U.S. and found many factors. Most people gave reasons that fell under one or two of the below themes, but some gave four or more reasons.

Financial circumstances

Around 40% of people in the study mentioned a financial reason for needing an abortion. Most of them had general financial concerns or said they could not afford to support a child.

Around 4% said a lack of employment contributed to their decision, and 0.6% said they terminated their pregnancies because of a lack of insurance or government assistance.

Timing

More than one-third (36%) of study participants cited reasons relating to timing. Some felt they were not emotionally or financially ready to have a baby, while others felt they were too old to have a child.

Partner-related reasons

Almost one-third (31%) of study respondents gave reasons relating to their partner.

For example, some individuals said they did not have a good or stable relationship with their partner or that their partner was unsupportive. Around 8% wanted to get married before having children. Others mentioned that they had a partner who was abusive or who did not want the baby.

Affordability many times is an issue when the dude has no job. It falls on the women to do everything.

I thought you said old dudes controlling young women.

 

if the dude has no job seems he would have a lot of time to do things.

 

Florida provides access to family planning and related preventive health services for both males and females, including teens, in all 67 counties through local county health departments or contracted agencies. Here are the key details:

Birth Control Methods and Supplies: Individuals have access to FDA-approved birth control methods and supplies. These options are available to help with family planning and prevent unexpected pregnancies.

Abstinence Counseling and Education: Information and education, including abstinence counseling, are available to all who want and need these services. It’s important to make informed decisions regarding birth control.

Sliding Fee Scale: Services are provided on a sliding fee scale, based on family household income and size. Individuals with incomes up to 100% of poverty do not pay fees for services.

Additional Services: Other services include pregnancy testing and counseling, physical examinations, screening for hypertension, breast and cervical cancer, and sexually transmitted diseases (including HIV counseling and testing). Counseling and education for health promotion and disease prevention are also available.

 

due to the ACA, insurances have to cover female BC at no cost.

 

Hopefully the topic gets on the ballot in Florida, as its a state issue.

In a separate 4-3 ruling Monday, the Florida Supreme Court allowed a ballot measure to go to voters that would enshrine abortion rights in the state's constitution.

The proposed amendment says “no law shall prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient’s health, as determined by the patient’s healthcare provider.” It provides for one exception that is already in the state constitution: Parents must be notified before their minor children can get an abortion.

The majority of justices rejected Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody's argument that the proposed amendment is deceptive and that voters won’t realize just how far it will expand access to the procedure

Do you think the people moving to FL are coming because they want liberal policies? Florida will be all red except the 3 idiot counties in the southeast. Florida demographics have changed since 2018 when a liberal had a chance.

The abortion issues could win the election for Biden there. Glad he sees that and is campaigning there. 

[sherpa]

Anybody else see the irony of placing your hope of winning a state and an election by denying and directly defying a doctrinal  belief at the core of his professed faith?

I'm not sure what he believes, but I'm sure glad he didn't serve in the military with me nor is a member of any organization I belong to.

I don't know if you've figures this out yet, actually I can say with 100% certitude that you haven't, and that would be nothing new, but every human routinely violates the ten commandments.

 

Old Testament has nothing germane here, so not sure what that comment is to convey.

 

Anyway, Biden is the very definition of a hypocrite by denying the basics of his oft stated religious affiliation, to the point of staking his reelection on it.
