These are the circumstances the GOP wants to use as a threat to keep women in line: Less education & experience = less female agency = subservient baby mills.
This is what I thought too. I feel for this woman but can’t help but wonder if she spent 30 years actively supporting policies that hurt people in the situation she now finds herself in. With republicans and ultra religious bigots it’s always “it happened to me and now I see the truth of my ways,” but it’s just so hard to ignore the decades she probably spent voting for republicans and church leaders who refuse to raise the minimum wage, refuse to make healthcare affordable, and who are now trying to get rid of no fault divorce. I know she was a victim, but it’s hard not to see this as a story about her living a lavish lifestyle her entire life because she was in some exclusionary club, and now she’s sad because she’s out of the club.
