While searching for something completely different, found this link again in an old post. Hillary Clinton in the spring of 2009, responding to a question (in the House) about the role of U.S. government supporting access to safe abortion, contraception, maternal health care and education abroad with a vigorous defense of reproductive rights and family planning.






This is why "just as bad/no difference/no one knew what she was standing for/didn't do anything for others in her time of office" talk still makes me so furious.

The thing is, the Republican electors are likely to be people who voted for Trump. Even if tge election goes to the House, it's going to be a house whose members are up for reelection in two years in front of voters who like Trump more than they like their congressmen. Even if I thought it was a good idea -- and I'm not sure I do -- it seems very unlikely to happen.

(Not sure it's a good idea as in, Trump's a nightmare but so is an executive w/ questionable legitimacy and Trump + his supporters on the loose with a plausible narrative about how the election was stolen. All things considered I think trusting congress & the courts to do their job resisting a bad executive and voters to show up in the next few elections is a better option for those disposed to long term thinking.)
