This takes "Trump sucks!" to a whole new level...
By Liza Walter — Written on Mar 31, 2017
Have you ever been so angry with President Donald Trump and his funky administration's policies that you wished you could just bite his head off in a fit of rage?
Guess what ... Now you can!
U.K. based candy company, Smith and Sinclair, has created "Trump Sucks" lollipops.
As if that weren't cool enough, all profits go straight to International Planned Parenthood Association.
According to their website, the first batch of 500 have already sold out, so the rest of us will have to wait until May 8th for our delicious, sugar-coated political candy treats — which by the way, come in two tasty flavors: butterscotch and sea salt OR strawberry and mint.
You can stick it to the Trump Administration for only £5 ($6.27 U.S. dollars).
We have to give this company some major kudos for creating such a fun candy that not only helps an organization that so desperately needs our support right now, but that also shows we will resist!
These lollipops are the company's way of protesting Trump's reinstatement of the "Global Gag Rule."
This "rule" is essentially a ban on U.S. funding toward any international health organizations whose advising of women on family planning includes mention of abortion. So basically, it under this ban, it doesn't even matter if the U.S. funds are or aren't directly funding abortions; if abortion is mentioned as an option, you can kiss your prior funding goodbye.
This particular policy, sometimes referred to as the Mexico City Policy, was first introduced by President Ronald Reagan in 1984 and has been bounced back and forth between each consecutive president.
President Trump was inaugurated on January 20, 2017, and wasted no time reinstating the ban as one of his first executive orders on January 23, 2017.
The problems with this order go far deeper than whether your personal stance is pro-life or anti-abortion. Planned Parenthood offers so much more than abortions — including preventative care such as pap smears, breast exams, prenatal care, STI screening and treatment, and more — so that women AND men can afford to stay safe and healthy.
I don't know about you but I can't wait to get Trump's head on a stick ... via airmail.
So place your order now (before they sell out again!) and put that sucker right where he belongs ... in your mouth!
