I agree. I’m very confused as to how this would result in less Democrats?
I was raised in heavyyyyy Conservative family, and the entire family, including the youngins’ now, all espouse those same beliefs. I veered hard Left only when I left home, traveled, and was exposed to people from other walks of life from my own.
I feel like this would hurt the Republicans more than anyone, because while yes, more Democrats would obviously get abortions, a lot of Democratic women DO want children/family. They’d just like to stop after two children or whatever, not end up with like 8. So it’s not like they’d be choosing to have an abortion every single time they get preggers.
And a lot of Republican women want the same thing: to have a child or two, but not 8.
Both women I’m certain want the option for it if they’ve had particularly difficult/traumatic pregnancies and still want to be around for their current children.
decrease the numberofDemocrats and increase Republicans
So you assume brain choices are inherited? They can be learned. But they aren’t hereditary. Plenty of people are related to people differing political opinions so I thought that would have been enough to be debunked as an assumption.
You are right that you aren’t born with whatever politics, but they said that was her point, not that in practice it’s a direct thing. I’m sure it’s easier to instill Republican beliefs into someone born in a Republican family rather than Democrats or other political affiliations.

Except it won’t have that effect.

I do, I showed my husband and I was jokingly like “How dare Ann Coulter make a point that I agree with? 😂”.
But moreover, I don’t think she’s making a rational point at all. I just don’t think the idea that this will result in less Dems either.
That may be her “ultimate goal” or whatever, but I also think it would backfire on her magnificently.
(And before anyone comes at me, I’m pro-choice 100% of the time, IRL)

Ok… when someone is wrong about the reason but right about the plan you don’t correct them

I don’t know who you are arguing as if that wasn’t even mentioned.
Thanks for the clarification. When I start to agree with her I begin to wonder about myself.
