This is a great policy, god bless that man

The Democrats are doing everything in their power to suppress our birthrates, and at the same time, they're importing millions of foreigners to replace us. It's one thing, but it helps.

My niece had her only child through IVF, and it cost $55k over 15 years ago. Will she be getting a taxpayer paid refund?

Politically, I kinda get it.

I understand it from a getting elected perspective considering Harris’ attack on Trump over IVF but this is a horrible policy proposal. Government should not mandate anything.

I honestly don’t have a problem with ivf. Lots of middle class families use it that actually want to raise children.

Make it a tax deduction and I could be persuaded to see the data on cost.

I hate the idea of straight up payments for anything. But we need future taxpayers. Preferably from working American families.

IVF needs to be affordable because the people using it are middle to upper class families who delayed having kids until after they got their lives settled or got married later in life.

In general you need two incomes per household and it’s more expensive than ever for daycare and to find a starter house, people are delaying kids and the older you are the more complications that happen. It’s a shame that IVF isn’t covered by insurance more.

It also takes away the ridiculous attack angle from Dems that he or Republicans want to ban IVF.

I’m sure the cost of successful IVF baby and total lifetime tax revenue per baby could show this actually makes even more economic sense.

I am in favor of more productivity based incentives for having kids, which this is not.


I am in favor of Trump using this as a bargaining chip to dangle in front of the Dems in Congress to get something else accomplished, like say deporting illegals and ending any sort of welfare paid/given to them.

"We need to make sure our beautiful women in this country - the most beautiful women - can have all the children they want, but in order to do that we need to remove the excess strain on the system. That's why I propse a bill that would fund IVF treatments for American women, but only after we remove those illegals that would take advantage of American tax dollars they haven't paid into"

In short, I would 100% support Trump using this to bargain a deal that would accomplish something we all want as conservatives, but maybe the Dems are sheepish on. It would give the Dems an out to support something like a mass deportation, if they could tell their supporters that they did it for IVF treatments

It would be massively expensive and we'd need a LOT more fertility specialists and will create many many embryos that will never be born (so the fetal personhood people won't like it). but if Trump impulsively thinks it helps him win an election and stay out of jail, baws are on board.

Anyone with brain knows Trump is closer to a Bill Clinton than far right extremist.

America is no longer intelligent, educated, or mature enough for small government and reduced spending messaging.

You win elections these days by promising the unwashed masses all the shite you are going to give them.

If we're going to spend a bunch of money I'd rather it be on legitimate stuff for actual Americans rather than a bunch of bullshite on illegal immigrants and foreign countries.
