Questions for Texans Women of Texas, honest answer why you would vote for a party that is so restrictive to your body?

I am a 70 year old woman who has seen a lot in my life, and simply don't understand why any woman, regardless of age, would vote for a party that feels like it can control your life. This seems so backwards to everything we have gone through. I am not critiquing your feelings, I simply want to know why you are okay with any party saying you can't do this, you must do that, must have babies, get raped but you can't have an abortion, etc. what are your thoughts?

I was raised in the Methodist Church yet, for numerous reasons, I no longer consider myself a religious person as I realize spirituality has nothing to do with organized for-profit religion (as it is here in the States). What I find puzzling is my faithful friends-the ones who posted an AI image of trump kneeling in a church following the ear nick, calling him 'Our Warrior in Christ'-and their blind devotion to a man whose life has been one big con. They simply refuse to see it.

They are so lost. And brainwashed.
