"No limits. I know liberals hate the term, but it is an entirely accurate characterization. And some states do allow abortion up until birth. New York is one of them."
This is an outright falsehood. New York allows abortion through the 24th week; after that, a woman can only get one if her health or the pregnancy is at risk. You might find them inadequate, but those *are* limits.
"Most countries, by the way, have a cut off at 15 weeks."
Most countries also have public healthcare systems that pay for abortions and birth control in full, and don't require medically unnecessary stuff like fetal ultrasounds, waiting periods, or admitting privileges at hospitals. Unless those things are also on the table, it's a specious comparison.
And if a woman was having a pregnancy emergency in Europe, she'd be able to end her pregnancy with pretty minimal fuss. No doctor in Europe is afraid of going to jail for saving a woman's life by giving her an abortion. Another reason why the comparisons to Europe are bunk.
