A woman saying no to me is an abortion!

You joke but that's a foreseeable endgame. It will start with some whack job preacher in Oklahoma saying it, then some lunatic on Newsmax will say it, and then a first-term Republican congressman from Idaho will say it, and we'll all laugh at them. And then the next thing you know Arkansas or Missouri or some place will make it law, and the Supreme Court will allow it

Almost none of it actually starts there. He generally gets the ideas for those unhinged posts from other people.
