29. And nobody on the left supports Government intervention that would stop her from doing or being those things.

Whereas the Trump administration is moving now to criminalise progressive values and organisations, to assert that the US is a Christian nation and not a pluralistic society as the 1st Amendment clearly intended, remove access to vaccinations from people who chose to take them, criminalise abortion, make it harder for women who chose to work, silence voices in the media that promote anything other than fascist values and strip museums, libraries and schools of any opinions besides the ones they sanction.

So yeah, it's a disingenuous as well as a stupid argument because she knows perfectly well that when her guys are in power they couldn't give less of a shit about making room for anyone's opinions besides their own - and they exercise state power to shut down opposing views.
