JFC, let me remind you that Biden removed the title IX protections for girls on his first day in office, did nothing about reversing abortion restrictions.

Were they great for women? No. Will Trump be? Doubt it.

The world has changed since then and the people around Trump have changed, I'm really worried about the consequences

Although what scares me more than anything is that the way trump has changed how politics done in America is an existential threat to democracy in the most powerful country in the world.
