The Silly Season Thread

In another thread in this section, the issue of single issue voters came up.
Let's face it, it's a reality, and the subject reminded me of this.

Recently I had a conversation with two different women , both in their 70's.
The subject of Donald Trump came up with both women.
The first thing that came out of their mouths, besides "I'd never vote for DT".was that a woman should have the right to choose..In other words, abortion on demand in all 50 states. I assume they would include DC,US Virgin Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, etc.

I told them both that DT didn't repeal Roe v. Wade. One of the ladies then proceeded to tell me that DT stacked the SCOTUS with three liars who said they wouldn't overturn R v. W, just to get on the court like it was some devious plot.
I didn't know what they had said, for sure, so I researched it.

I sent the following video to one of the women. I then asked her if she read it. She said no, I just deleted it. She then asked if it came from Fox News. I said no, but I told her she should have read it. She then said I told you. I don't want to hear any of the Trump right wing BS.

Was it ? You be the judge, but this is what we're up against ,friends.

BTW , I checked several surveys of what voters care about in 2024 . Abortion wasn't even in the top 10 in many of them.
