Screenshot: Meet the Press "Chuck because we live in a democratic society I recognize not everyone shares my views or the views of the vast majority of Americans or Arkansans, that's why I say that one of the major problems with having unelected judges make these kind of decisions is we don't have the ability to have those democratic debates," said Cotton."To have an open and frank conversation without playing within the guard rails that unelected judges have put up in this country.

And of course he cited his authorities

Life does not begin at conception and a foetus does not have constitutional rights. How ridiculous.

So pregnant immigrants cannot be deported then, since the fetus has constitutional rights?

Just diversion tactics.

Crazy and a liar.

This coming from a man who’s probably never been attracted to women, but okay 🤦‍♀️

He is wrong!

Does this mean people can now vote at 17years 3months, since they are now officially 18 years old using GOP logic?

Women have rights too, far more than what you could dare understand, being a male jerk.🙄😒😡

This means Cotton thinks birth control is murder.

How very unchristian of him

You know who actually had a constitutional right and is alive? Women and also pregnant trans men

Just none after they’re born TomCottonAR

A fetus does not have a social security number or no proof of citizenship. Stop it.

SenTomCotton Sex should be completely outlawed if not, all men should have vasectomies. They are reversible. Easy as that jackass. It takes 2 to Tango and only the women are legislated.

“In related news, the NRA has proposed a plan to arm fetuses with tiny guns to defend against abortion doctors.”

Hey, GOP. I have personhood. I have a heartbeat. My body is even actual, sustainable life on its own. So, I get to make my own decisions about my life and my body. Go away.

That is just his opinion based on nothing. The Old Testament says life starts at first breath.

No what Republicans are doing is stopping white women from getting abortions so they can continue to procreate because they fear that whites will be extinct and white women abort rate is 60%

Two wrongs don't make a right BUT if they're going to keep pushing this misogynistic, patriarchal bullshit, then it's time for men to begin paying child support from the moment of conception and be responsible for ALL hospital bills relating to the child's birth.

Alrighty now! Since both are in the same body, the one who actually can speak, is the one who actually has the constitutional rights! Not physics here people!

That’s not what the 14th amendment makes clear. Oh well....

Then I hope child support immediately starts getting collected. Because we are forcing women to withgo responsibilities that we are not forcing men to. Sickening.

So does the sperm he no doubt sends swimming into a tissue every morning.
