    That just sounds like a hit piece. Wringing your hands over the word “when” instead of “if” is such a goober line. How do you get “desirable” from that. Plus at this point abortion literally is illegal in multiple states.

      A couple times and I tried and failed to read Bruenig’s own articles on abortion among other things. What she believes personally is her business. But there’s no need for her to spend 1,000s of words of obfuscation that she’s anti-abortion. She can just say something like “Personally I do not believe in abortion. However…” It’s not hard. But she’ll never do that because it hurts her brand. She also routinely deletes all her tweets. She seems full of bullshit as far as I am concerned.

      I’m now tempted to read her Trump Jesus article. But The Atlantic is garbage and her double speak gives me a migraine.
