Alrighty then since T***p is a cuss word, https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143323259
It might be hard to explain this to polite company, but a certain man we cannot name politely has now claimed to be The Father of IVF. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/10/16/politics/ivf-donald-trump-abortion/index.html
I am of course expecting the "liberal media" to give us the sounds of crickets and view of tumbleweeds blowing slowly past, instead of echoing the "Invented the Internet" constant feed that killed Al Gore's chances. By the way, as far as promotion and understanding of the internet went back then, Al Gore was in fact the politician who championed and helped the internet back when Bill Gates still thought it was a nothing burger.
In this case though, coming up with an explanation of how T***p is the Father of IVF, is going to be rough unless they come up with another meaning for IVF. "Illegal Voter Fraud" is the best I can come up with so far. While I would not say he is the Father of it, I would say he has fathered a lot of it.

This article could be published so fast because the vast majority of these are long-debunked repeat lies.

He told a bunch of lies.
The Republican presidential nominee made at least 19 false claims in the one-hour event that aired Wednesday morning most of them debunked earlier in the campaign but some of them new, notably including an absurd claim that he is the father of IVF.
Trumps falsehoods included repeat lies on the subjects of abortion, immigration, inflation and national security. Here is a fact check.....
Trump and in vitro fertilization (IVF): Trump declared that he is entirely in favor of IVF. But Trump also falsely claimed, Im the father of IVF. This is just nonsense. The first child conceived through IVF was born in 1978; Trump, clearly, had nothing to do with it, and he said in this same town hall answer that he only recently had IVF explained to him by a Republican senator.
