Democrat Rep. Katie Porter says increasing abortions would help Americans deal with high inflation

Democrat Rep. Katie Porter of California offered an astounding argument for her pro-abortion views when she said that more abortions would ease the strain of inflation.

Porter made the comments while appearing on "The Last Word" on MSNBC Thursday.

"President Biden has said that inflation is the number one priority for the Biden White House to try to get under control right now," said host Lawrence O'Donnell.

"As you are out there in California talking to constituents during this reelection year for congress, how does inflation compare to this newly important, in the sense of the Supreme Court decision pending, abortion issue? How do those two issues compare?" he asked.

"Well, I don't think they compare, I think they actually reinforce each other," responded Porter.

"So, the fact that inflation can happen and it can become more expensive to feed your kids and to fuel your car, is exactly why people need to be able to be in charge of how many mouths they're gonna have to feed," she claimed.

"So I think the fact that we're seeing this jump in expenses, that we're seeing people having to pay more in the grocery store pay more at the pump, pay more for housing, is a reason people are saying I need to be able to make my own decisions about when and if to start a family," she continued.

...

Porter also claimed in the interview that conservatives were going to ban all contraceptives after banning abortion, a widely spread conspiracy theory among Democrats.

Here's the video of Porter's comments:

“Democrat Rep. Katie Porter says increasing abortions would help Americans deal with high inflation”

Did she also say that getting rid of baby formula will also help depopulate this country of Americans?

She actually said that? Another reason for term limits.

Translation: “We destroyed this country so completely that you can no longer afford children.” Trees and rope are what we need to solve this problem.

What is shocking is that she doesn't think this is shocking. If you can't feed 'em, kill 'em. Yeah, that'll work. What a pity there isn't a pill or something that would prevent pregnancy instead.

This is 100% the democrats fault because they are purposely destroying our country. It has zero to do with the babies they’re so eager to murder.

I normally pray America can be spared of the commies and Muslims trying to destroy us

More recently, I’m praying that we be relieved of the stupid useful idiots (fellow travelers) that make such ridiculous, inane statements
