    I don't know, but I can't wait to get the MAGA spin on it.

    I'm sure a full interpretation of his comment will be forthcoming.

    Because he has dementia. The signs are unmistakable now.

    Interesting that Trump bragged he didn't know what IVF even was until the young, attractive ( his words) senator asked him to save it.

    When the first baby was born as a result of IVF it was a huge story. Three years later when the first US 'test tube' baby was born, it was another huge story. Trump may have been living under a rock, I guess. Then when vetting his nomination for the Supreme Court he didn't see that she endorsed crimilizing IVF. In June when Democrats proposes a bill to codify the right to IVF, I guess he didn't ask what it was then either. 

    The question I have is whether a Presidential candidate who doesn't even know what's happening around him is up for the job.

    He was too busy screwing people out of their money to pay attention to such small medical advances.

    Walz has been talking about how he and his wife have a daughter thanks to IVF. So maybe Trump claims he is the father of IVF to make Walz feel indebted to him. But it is more likely because he is a big fat liar Cheers!

    Yes, but I don't want anyone calling Walz a liar, because they say he lied about IVF.  I can almost guarantee it will happen.

    Walz lies about everything. 
    When he was in China, how many times he went to China, IVF, his military rank, saying he fought in war zones, saying he recieved awards that he did not,.... and there is so much more he has lied about.  He did not misspeak or use bad grammar...he maybe a knucklehead but he is a lying knucklehead.

    Bad grammar is a laugh, I agree. 

    But that is what Tim Walz claimed as an excuse for his lies.

    Trump mastering the media once again.  The media is now talking about Trump's position on IVF.  Which they have been ignoring and just flat out lying about. 

    The main point being: “We really are the party for IVF,” Trump told moderator and Fox News host Harris Faulkner on “The Faulkner Focus.” “We want fertilization, and it’s all the way, and the Democrats tried to attack us on it, and we’re out there on IVF, even more than them. So, we’re totally in favor.” This post was edited by my2cents at October 16, 2024 7:48 PM MDT

    The media I watch is not talking about Trumps position on IVF. They are talking about his declining cognition.

    That is normal for most media but this quote which they are quoting....will make people search the quote and it will clarify that Trump is very supportive of IVF.

    Yahoo News may have realized it...the link in the question returns an page not found.   This post was edited by my2cents at October 17, 2024 5:54 AM MDT

    It will clarify how Trump changes to whatever position he thinks will get him  ore votes.

    Trump has never opposed IVF.  That was/is a scare tactic from the P2025 BS.

    Trump didn't oppose it because he didn't even know know what it  (his own admission ). So he didn't support it either. Overturning Roe put it in jeopardy. Amy Coney Barrett thinks it should be criminalized.

    Then is it not a flip flop. He supports it. He has even said he thinks insurance should be required to pay for it.
