About that miracle antibody "cure" Trump took...

Trump’s antibody treatment was tested using cells originally derived from an abortion
This week, President Donald Trump extolled the cutting-edge coronavirus treatments he received as “miracles coming down from God.” If that’s true, then God employs cell lines derived from human fetal tissue.

Maybe if that fetus would have been allowed to live, the person would have been a far superior candidate for president than Joe Biden!
