Sen. Marco Rubio said it’s his Democratic opponent, Val Demings, holds an extreme view on abortion.
“I believe innocent human life is worthy of the protection of our laws, but I have voted and would vote for bills, if I were in the state legislature that had restrictions because I’m in support of any bill that saves lives,” Rubio said.
“The overwhelming majority of abortions occur outside of some of these commonly discussed. I know it’s not a majority position, many people probably don’t agree with me, you probably couldn’t pass it and that’s why Florida did a four-month. But I certainly think what Florida passed, something I would have voted for while I was in the Legislature, is a very reasonable law, after four months. But people like Val Demings believe abortion should be paid by taxpayers, at any time, including potentially the day the child is due for delivery. That’s an outrageous position because, and you have to have that position if you’re endorsed by Planned Parenthood and NARAL the way she is.”
The comments came as part of an interview with NBC 6’s Jackie Nespral where he discussed a range of issues. The incumbent Republican made clear he plans to dig in on support for further regulating abortion in the wake of the Florida Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, even as Demings and Democrats make clear an intent to use the issue to energize their own base in the midterm elections.
For her part, Demings has said she supports the right to have an abortion “up to the time of viability of the fetus” based on consultation with a physician.
Rubio appeared to base his characterization on her vote in Congress in favor of the Women’s Health Protection Act, which goes much farther in protecting a legal right to an abortion.
He also suggested that while his position wasn’t extreme — Rubio recently said he supported restricting abortion even in cases of rape and incest — he favors the decision being handled differently by each state at the moment.
“There’s nothing in the Constitution about abortion and that’s all the Supreme Court said,” Rubio said.
“The Supreme Court said there’s nothing in the Constitution about abortion. This is an issue that needs to be decided at the state legislative level just like anything else. In fact, before she passed away, Ruth Bader Ginsburg made the same argument in some ways. She argued had that process been allowed to continue, America would have found closure one way or the other on that issue. And Roe v. Wade sort of stepped in, invented a constitutional right that didn’t exist, and created 40 years of division over that issue. So now states will decide. New York going to have different abortion laws. in Florida, abortions are illegal after four months.”

Marco is correct.
Dems like Dem, Dum Dumings support abortion up to the 9th month, and after birth. Just gruesome.
The House and Senate Dems voted for that.
Just the facts!

– Republican voter registrations are gaining on the Democrat registered voters in Pennsylvania, an indictment on Fetterman.
– Georgia’s Warnock is reduced to having to scurry for campaign funds in Florida as his funds are being depleted by having to pay attorney fees for lawsuits filed against him. Herschel Walker is gaining in the polls rapidly even ahead of Warnock.
– Val Demings doesn’t have a record to run on so her only campaign strategy is abortion. Marco Rubio is ahead in the polls by double digits.

Don’t fall for Rube’s attempt to distract from his plan to rob retirees of their Social Security and Medicare.
While Rube steals from the elderly, Demings has a long history of being tough on crime, FUNDING the police, middle class tax cuts, and affordable housing so that businesses can keep employees.
Just like Ketchup King, all Republicans have is lies and distractions.

The House bill went even FURTHER than Roe v Wade. Roe allowed certain abortion restrictions. It allowed partial birth abortions to be banned. It allowed the states to put in specific safeguards and regulations. etc..
The Democrats are voting for bills that don’t allow ANY restrictions. They don’t have ANY regulations. California is even allowing post-natal abortions. Which means you even technically abort the child after it’s born! This is extreme. Even the most liberal and gender-neutral countries in Europe do not have such radical laws.

THE PEOPLE TELLING YOU THIS GARBAGE ARE LYING TO YOU!!! Doctors are not doing abortions at the 9th month—-or after a baby is born. Women don’t want that idiocy.
The people making up this crap want to ban contraceptives——their goal is to get you all excited so that you will help them. If they haven’t done it yet, they will soon start preaching to you about the “contraceptive mentality”—- telling you that birth control leads to abortion and all kinds of behavior that you need to help them end.
They are fakes using religion to force everyone to conform to their ideas of what the world should be. They break the Ten Commandments all the time with their lies. Stop listening to them.

Marco, Read a history book (before Ron bans them):
Ginsburg thought there was a Constitutional right to abortion, but that it should have been decided as a woman’s right–not a doctor’s right (to practice, as in Roe). Ginsburg thought legislation was heading in the right direction, and thought the most extreme bans should be the first ones for the court to decide.
The word “abortion” is not in the Constitution because the Constitution is not a medical textbook. And, modern abortions weren’t invented yet! Benjamin Franklin published an abortion recipe in his math textbook that was used by women and girls in their own homes. Alito held a seance to speak directly with 13th and 17th century witch hunters to uncover exactly what the Founders thought about the topic.

You are just attempting to smear all abortions by talking about “late term” abortions. That is starting to not work, as people are learning a lot more about abortion as a result of Dobbs.
Voters did not want Roe overturned. They don’t want women and girls to have fewer rights than their grandmothers had. They don’t want politicians running their families. That’s not the American way. Voters are using their ballots to tell the government to get out of their healthcare and lives.

This is what Democrats support. Abortion up to birth. No civilized person could support them
“ “If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen,” he continued. “The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”. National Review quoting former VA Governor Northam.
MAGA Forever!!!
September 5, 2022 at 8:16 am
t’s time to push harder. Tell the governor you want him to act NOW to stop all abortion. He’s not doing enough!! After the election is not soon enough. Tell him now.
Make sure every Republican running for office is ON RECORD for their position about abortion. Pressure them to move more quickly and loudly. They must make this a central point of their campaigns. Call them out when their stance is too weak. Call out any who backpedal and talk about exceptions of any kind.
Then tell them to always support our TRUE PRESIDENT as he battles persecution from the non-believers.
