Don't let anyone ever tell you America is split on abortion rights: A new poll shows that 81% of voters don't want abortion regulated by the government, but decided between a patient & doctor

Abortion isn’t an issue of Americans disagreeing—it’s not something that’s polarizing the country, and it’s not ‘controversial’. A small group of extremist legislators are passing bans against the wishes of the vast majority of voters, forcing laws onto people who don’t want them.

Yes, it is the individual who should decide, with decent advice from practitioners. Sorted. Why are legislators even involved?

And why then will 50% of said US citizens vote for the return of the middle ages under the reign of the orange shitgibbon?

I would actually prefer that abortion be PROTECTED FEDERALLY rather than up to a potentially discriminatory doctor

And yet, they will still vote GQP and pray it doesn't happen to them, or delude themselves that they'll never need an abortion ....

It's like the blue state / red state divide. There aren't actually blue states, just ones where Christofascists are stopped at gunpoint from running things. The red states are where that isn't happening.
