I imply, you’ve JD Vance actually speaking about watering down folks’s proper to vote, relying on if they will viably carry a baby or not,” Ocasio-Cortez mentioned, pointing to the low bar of sanity within the Trump marketing campaign. “We’ve got to grasp how unhinged this marketing campaign has gotten.
