Lena Dunham: Elect Hillary Clinton Because She Thinks Abortion Should be a Human Right


Lena Dunham on Showing Skin

During last nights Democratic convention, abortion activists ad Planned Parenthood spokeswoman Lena Dunham applauded pro-abortion Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton for saying abortion should be a human right.

Dunham, of course, was careful to couch that notion in the typical pro-abortion womens rights phraseology which makes her declaration worse. Not only does Dunham (and Clinton) think snuffing out the life of an unborn child is a part of womens rights, they think it is a human right as well. nevertheless, Dunham lauded Hillary for coming to the conclusion that abortion is a human right 22 years ago and she told Democrats in Philadelphia that was a marquee reason to elect her president.

Heres what Duham said and a video clip of her pro-abortion remarks:

Lena: Im a pro-choice, feminist, sexual assault survivor with a chronic reproductive illness. Donald and his party think I should be punished for exercising my constitutional rights, and his rhetoric about women takes us back to a time when we were meant to be beautiful and silent. Meanwhile, 22 years ago, Hillary declared that womens rights are human rights. And she made it possible for my fellow sexual assault survivors in my home state of New York to have access to safe, immediate care in any emergency room. Hillary knows that access and opportunity are the American promise not transphobia, Islamophobia, xenophobia, and systemic racism. She knows that hatred of all kinds is ours collectively to change, not to ignite for the craven purpose of seeking power.

Clinton has repeatedly said unborn children have no Constitutional rights.

SIGN THE PLEDGE! We Oppose Hillary Clinton!

"Hi. I"m Lena Dunham, and according to Donald Trump, my body is probably, like, a 2."

"But America, you"re not Mexican," Dunham remarked.

"And President Obama isn"t Kenyan, Lena, but that doesn"t stop Donald," Ferrera said.

"We know what you"re all thinking," Dunham said. "Why should you care what some television celebrity has to say about politics?"

"And we feel the same way," Ferrera continued. "But he is the Republican nominee so we need to talk about it."

The duo went on to address the ideals that Clinton embodies, and how Trump has spoken out against immigrants, pro-choice advocates, women, and other communities in the course of his campaign.

"Look," America said, "Donald"s not making America great again. He"s making America hate again. And the vast majority of us, we cannot afford to see his vision of America come to be."
