Republicans have learned nothing from the Todd Akin debacle of 2012.
Michigan gubernatorial candidate Garrett Soldano, a chiropractor who’s never run for any public office before, recently told right-wing anti-mask host April Moss of “Real America’s Voice” that women who are raped should thank God for the situation they’re in because that child “may be the next president.”...
...To put that more bluntly, Soldano knows a good guy whose mother was brutally raped, and he turned out all right, therefore all rape victims should be forced to carry their rapists’ babies to term — all while thanking God for the opportunity to be sexually assaulted and maybe, just maybe, give rise to a decent human being.
Is he going to offer to personally support them through college? If not, shut the hell up!
Or maybe the rapist would be the next president. Perhaps that's already happened. Would not be at least surprised.
I sincerely hope Whitmire keeps gaining in the polls. The Repuglicans and their misogyny gets more disgusting every year. If I knew why some women vote against their own self-interest, I could rule the world.
Fortunately Whitmire seems to be gaining new voters everyday.
Why do so many women voters on the right of politics support candidates who espouse such contemptible and degrading views of women. Despite knowing that he regards all women as mere breeding stock, dismissing brutal rape as a positive act because the resultant pregnancy could produce a genius or a President…a fanciful notion unless it was a Donald Trump replica, these brainwashed women still choose to vote for these misogynistic men…I’m sure Mr Atkin will be no exception?
