Hovde: Most Abortions Happen Through Day After Pill
California banker Eric Hovde really knows how to warm up to the ladies.

By Chris capper Liebenthal — August 17, 2024




........................WISPOLITICS HOST: So, you're okay with various states having various laws, and if a woman needs an abortion and her state doesn't provide it, then she'd have to travel for the abortion.

ERIC HOVDE: Well, okay, let's be honest on that. The vast majority of abortions today are done through the day after pill. So, the reality is most abortions are handled, and you're getting medication delivered online.

WH: You're okay with the preservation of the use of the pill?

EH: Well, look, you're not changing that. We can all talk in theory. Let's just talk in reality. You're not changing that. That pill will be around. And just like hard narcotics transfer from state to state or from other countries into our countries, medications move all over our country, and that's just reality.

What a charmer he is!

First of all, the morning after pill isn't an abortion pill. It's a contraceptive. In other words, it prevents pregnancies, it doesn't end them.

Secondly, the morning after pill is not a narcotic. There aren't women junkies in the streets looking for a fix of morning after pills. .................................

Hovde would be horrible for WI. He also said people in nursing homes shouldn't vote because they're going to die soon anyway. Essentially lives in CA, big banker with lots of cash. Hope he blows lots of it on a losing campaign.
Go Tammy go. Where do they dredge these candidates up? Ugh.
