Some liberals have reacted to Donald Trump’s victory by ensuring that they will not be able to reproduce. While some may find that odd or even humorous, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel had a different take, as he claimed it said something about Trump.

Kimmel observed, “Since Donald Trump won the election, this is interesting, the number of vasectomies in the United States has skyrocketed. Vasectomies were up 1,200 percent on November 6th, and that’s the sign of a great incoming president: When people start getting all their healthcare in before it becomes illegal, when people stop wanting to have children in the United States.”

There’s a couple major problems with Kimmel’s proclamations. First, at no point has Donald Trump or any Republican suggested that vasectomies should be illegal. Second, men who get vasectomies based on political events usually do so because they fear the end of consequences-free sex after pro-lifers enjoy electoral, legislative, or legal success. However, Donald Trump ran as a centrist federalist on abortion, his HHS secretary nominee is a lifelong abortion defender, and Republican leadership in Congress has not made pro-life legislation a priority.

It’s not just Kimmel. The 1,200 number comes from Planned Parenthood, and a few days earlier on MSNBC, former Planned Parenthood chief Alexis McGill Johnson joined The Weekend to worry about the organization potentially losing its federal funding, “Just the day after the election, we saw at Planned Parenthood health centers, a 1,200 percent increase in vasectomies for men. So, you know, Planned Parenthood sees people in all communities. Rural communities, urban communities, red communities, blue communities. And the idea that an attack on, you know, the work that Planned Parenthood does to fill the gap in this moment, when sexual and reproductive health care has been threatened and we are under attack makes no sense.”

What makes no sense is getting a vasectomy based on the outcome of an election. However, if liberals still insist on not reproducing after a GOP victory, not many conservatives are going to object.

Here are transcripts for the November 24 and 25-taped shows:
