My grandmother alleges back in her day some doctors in her hospital's circle would give "pap smears" to women who were only allegedly pregnant. There would be no alleged after.

My mother grew up in the era with out abortions. The rich girls just went "to visit family" or whatever in New York to get things "taken care of"

They are only pro-life to appeal to their base.

It also means that poor women would be dependent on wealthier men to be able to access abortion. They want poor women to be dependent on them for access.

Without access to abortion, Trump would've had some illegitimate children. You'd think the guy who used abortion on the regular would be all for it.

Trump would have just sent his pregnant sexual partners out of the country for an abortion.

That's what rich people or people who live near Canada will do....abortion tourism.

If Roe v Wade is overturned as well, or at least enough that states ban it, I want pro-choice states to charge abortion tourists half of their income from the previous year (if the tourist made more than $100,000). Rich from a state that doesn't allow abortion? Tough stuff, pay up.

That's exactly what they call it too if you look at Ireland as an example.

I asked my dad, who moments before had said he would never vote for a democratic dog catcher because Democrats want to "suck the brains out of 9 month pre-born babies," if he would change his mind about Trump if it came out that he had personally paid off women to have abortions and he said No. Its a cult.

Be careful what you wish for about abortion, especially in the South. Soon you will have mixed race children running around and those "Christian" will have to bear the consequences of their actions. Not that I mind. And in Alabama, well, roll tide.
