Donald Trump actually said something that
isn't totally bat-shit insane! Of course, that will destroy him with his republican base:
Get out the popcorn.
No they won't. The Republicans will love it.
The reason he says that is because ACA mandates that birth control be covered by insurance. If it is no longer by prescription, it will no longer be covered by insurance. Moreover, how does the dumb shit Donald expect women to insert an over-the-counter IUD by themselves?
There are non-prescription birth control methods - condoms & foams for instance. Pills, patches, IUDs, etc are by prescription for a reason. Trumpet's call to make those non-prescription just shows his complete lack of regard for the health, safety and financial well-being of women; and a complete lack of knowledge on the topic he is flapping his lips about.
