Would you rather have Trump as President but have abortion rights become a constitutional amendment, or anyone else be President but abortion is completely outlawed. (lemmy.world)

To clarify : abortion rights as a constitutional amendment means the right to an abortion is absolute under the eyes of the constitution. It would be fully up to the one that is pregnant and the doctor. No interference from the government.

Trump doesn't care about any of the rest of the Constitution, what makes you think he'd care about a part that guaranteed the right to an abortion?

So which would you choose?

Pretty sure she's saying neither, because it'd be an illusion of choice.

Fair enough.

Any ideas of why I've got so many down votes?

Idk.
Maybe because it's a WYR question with an illusion of choice?

I would take trump as president if citizens united was reveresed and it was made clear that constitutional rights only apply to living, breathing, human beings.
