THe title is a mouthful but it's even worse than it sounds. I hope this man gets sepsis and dies from it before he can take office.

I hope he loses big time and then dragged through the streets by his toes.

Clean water is a basic need of life. Look if you oppose abortion (which I don't to make that clear) then you should say I will block funding for let's say funding for feminine checkups for the poor. I am just saying if I were a politician that opposes abortion and want women who have abortions prosecuted that is what I would do.

But if I were a politician I would support abortion and funding for Planned Parenthood. But also as a man, I would also woukd support the same for free vasectomies too.

Don't mess with the water.
I got nothing to say here.

Planned Parenthood actually does vasectomies now. Not every location, though.
