Montana GOP Senate Candidate Says Young Women Are 'Indoctrinated' On Abortion Issue

Source: Huff Post

Oct 7, 2024, 02:48 PM EDT


Republican Senate candidate Tim Sheehy of Montana lamented that “young women between the ages of 19 and 30” are being “indoctrinated” on the issue of abortion during a campaign stop last year, according to The Daily Montanan.

“They’ve been indoctrinated for too long,” Sheehy said in recordings made public on Monday. “Abortion is their No. 1 concern. It’s all they want to talk about. They are single-issue voters. It’s all about pro-choice, pro-choice, ‘Republicans are pro-life, they want to take my rights away and lock me up and throw me away in prison.’”

He added: “And I said, well, are you familiar with what Democrats’ position is on abortion? It’s called murder. That is the position of the American Democrat Party.” As the outlet noted, the claim that abortion makes it legal to kill newborns has been repeatedly debunked.

Sheehy, a wealthy rancher and former U.S. Navy SEAL, is hoping to oust Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) in a race that is likely to determine control of the U.S. Senate.

This is the one running against Tester and hopefully this can be considered HIS "Bernie Moreno (R-OH) " moment.

He doesn't get to decide what women in Montana, or ANYWHERE think and how they arrived at their views. Bad enough he's part of the group that wants to control our bodies, but now, he thinks he gets to explain our minds and views to us? Fuck that. Hope the wise people in Montana come out and show this trust fund wonder the door.

It's the forced-birthers that have been indoctrinated in lies, and refuse to admit it, so they project that into the people they hate.

Every republican accusation is a confession.

and then a long course of psychological treatment. They are wayyyy too hung up on sex. It always points to something, probably their religious teachings for most of the people. Their whole attitude towards sex is abnormal.

Gee, I wonder why young women between 19 and 30 would be concerned about reproductive freedom. What a fricking moron.

I am sure Montana women be a 16 year old high school sophomore wants to keep the baby
after her boyfriend got her pregnant, the rape victim wants to have her rapist’s child, or the
mother who found out her 7 month old fetus has water on the brain which means the baby
will not live and her life is at risk too.

Keeping the seat blue is nice but protecting women’s rights is more important.

morning sickness, the joys of labor is something that's just no trouble, need to be confronted.

I always want to ask if they've ever been pregnant. Or they could get pregnant. I'm also enraged by the suggestion that a woman would walk by an abortion clinic at 8 plus months of pregnancy and only then decide to terminate. Really? I am very aware of how difficult, complex, and painful the decision to abort can be. But it needs to be the woman's choice every time.

We have a winner! Hell, for the past half-century, back room strategists in the GOP have been honing the edge of that Single Issue to cut a swath right to the heart of power in this country.

For many Right Wingers, a "broad outlook" means hating Abortion AND Gays as well as POC.
