Contributing sentiments towards policy:

57% : Elon Musk, who is obsessed with babies and Trump, may harbour similar fantasies.
54% : During a recent rally in Pennsylvania, for example, Trump praised his male supporters for "allowing" their wives to attend his campaign rallies without them.
48% : It was actually Jeffrey Epstein - who used to party with Trump - who was besotted with the idea of a ranch where 20 women at a time would be impregnated, in order to seed the human race with his DNA.
47% : While Trump is clearly trying to appeal to women with his IVF policy, you also have to wonder whether his buddy Musk - one of the most influential voices in the US's growing pro-natalist movement - has a hand in this.
46% : Trump said during a town hall campaign event in Wisconsin.
38% : While Trump hasn't announced plans for a baby ranch of his own yet, he is suddenly a big fan of artificial insemination.
31% : In short: Trump seems to be running on a platform where IVF would be free but also effectively illegal.
30% : I am fairly sure that Trump has no idea how IVF actually works, so here is a little explainer: you typically fertilise multiple eggs because you have no idea how many of them will develop into viable embryos.
29% : Nor will it cancel out the fact that Trump is a legally defined sexual predator who can't stop himself from saying every misogynistic thought that creeps into his little head.
20% : I'm not sure a last-minute IVF policy is going to cancel out the fact that abortion rights are a key issue in this election and Trump has boasted about being the guy who overturned Roe v Wade.
