Francesca Fiorentini, a progressive commentator and host of The Bitchuation podcast, made a striking statement regarding her potential reaction to a Trump victory in tomorrow’s presidential election.
When asked by The Sun’s chief political writer, Harry Cole, how she would respond if former President Donald Trump were to secure another term in the White House, Fiorentini reportedly suggested that she would consider a dramatic on-air reaction.
“I’ll drink cyanide on air and podcast into the night,” she remarked before going on to admit that she will keep fighting for the right to abortion.
“Women are dying right now from preventable infections related to miscarriages. Mothers, two women we know this week, died in Texas because they were suffering miscarriages,” Fiorentini said.
She claimed that women who needed an abortion were “turned away from emergency rooms.”
“They had an infection, and they needed treatment immediately. They were turned away from emergency rooms in Texas because there was a fetal heartbeat and so no doctor could attend to them until there was no more fetal heartbeat. Those women lost their life.”
“That’s what we’re fighting for. We’re fighting for our human rights. All around this country, our lives are in peril. I think most people, including in the UK, really need to understand just how second class citizens women in America have become since the overturning of Roe vs Wade.”
