MA Gov. Healey: Trump’s IVF Proposal ‘Patently False,’ ‘Offensive’
Breitbart ^ | 09/01/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/01/2024 12:05:36 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Governor Maura Healey (D-MA) said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that former President Donald Trump’s proposal to have the government or insurance companies cover in vitro fertilization (IVF) was not believable because he “will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing.”

Healey said, “You can’t take this seriously. I mean, this isn’t just a Republican — and by the way, I work well with Republicans — this is Donald Trump, who will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing. He caught some heat the other day, you know, and so he comes out with a statement that, all of a sudden, he’s a believer in IVF. It’s just patently false, it’s offensive.”

Her job title is “Governor”.

But her actual job is to be a Democrat Activist for the overthrow of American civilization. I do not know of a single good thing she has ever done in this state.

I don’t get this.

She’s offended that Trump says something, which many of her fellow democrats would agree with? But because Trump said it, we are supposed to take offense?

If I recall Trump has spoken about his support of IVF for years , though it’s not an issue that comes up a lot.

Here’s where we are:

Trump: Healy is a wonderful, beautiful,bunselfish, brilliant patriot!

Healey: He’s lying!

not believable because he “will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing."

Trump is the only president in my lifetime who actually implemented his campaign promises. That's what she's really afraid of.

We're on the brink of WWIII. Our economy sucks. The border is an open sieve.

People are supposed to worry about which way Trump votes on an issue that only affects a small percentage of the populous?

An issue which could be resolved by adoption or becoming part of a Big Brother/Sister program?

Quotes:

Usually in IVF, the woman has medicines (fertility hormones) to stimulate the ovaries to produce several eggs. The eggs are then collected and mixed with sperm in a laboratory.

IVF is carried out when the sperm quality is considered to be ‘normal’ If there are issues with the sperm quality such as low motility or numbers, a procedure called intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) may instead be used – this is where a single sperm is injected into the egg by an embryologist

If fertilisation is successful, the embryos are allowed to develop for between two and six days. This helps the embryologist to select the strongest embryo, which is then transferred back to the woman’s womb to hopefully continue to a successful birth.

Can I have IVF on the NHS?
It depends on where you live as decisions around who can have IVF on the NHS are made locally rather than nationally. Talk to your GP about what’s available in your area.

If you do need to pay for treatment, one cycle of IVF costs £5,000 on average, although this varies considerably.

“former President Donald Trump’s proposal to have the government or insurance companies cover in vitro fertilization (IVF)”

It’s not the government’s business to pay for stuff that Karl Marx would not think necessary.

It’s not the government’s business to insist only Cadillac class health insurance be made available when there are people who can barely afford bus fare.

Insurance companies might to choose to offer low claim year policies with an IVF reward voucher.

Couples that have not had success at making babies for years have those same years to set aside money.

“a 2022 study found that the clinical pregnancy rate for women under 30 who’d undergone an embryo transfer was 69.4%, whereas for women ages 40 to 43, that figure declined to 9.4%”

Well, if Trump indirectly says it’s OK to trash IVF embryos, why can’t I kill off my unwanted one via chemical abortion?

Just because some doctor wants to make big money via IVF is no reason to devalue human life.

Dr. IVF could do a second egg extraction and fertilization in case of initial failure. Or even a third if necessary.

A lot of countries subsidize IVF as part of a strategy to increase their population.

So different from the refreshing Kamala and her ‘no tax on tips’ proposal. /s

She’s actually describing Kamala especially about the blowing part.
