Nikki Glaser, a liberal and we assume pro-choice comedian, deleted this tweet asking why Donald Trump Jr. and his wife were allowed to have 5 children:
Want 5 abortions? FINE! Want 5 children? NO WAY!
Babies are a wonderful blessing and don't let feminists tell you otherwise. https://t.co/FooIriWmBf

Yeah, that’s not going to fly:
Feminists who support abortion @PPFA don't want gov't controlling their bodies. But if the body is held by a member of the Trump family they think it's "ok" to condemn @MrsVanessaTrump @DonaldJTrumpJr over how many kids they have?! The ignorance here is beyond…#MAGA https://t.co/t3WKdnzE43

Because we don’t live in the fascist totalitarian nightmare you would love us to become. https://t.co/jmQYAj72JN

And maybe Glaser wants new moms to get licensed or something before being “allowed” to have a baby:
We have five kids. Why should we have not been allowed to have had them? Upon whose authority would this be based? https://t.co/ZrmQuuY0LN

Like the DMV, but for babies:
"Still allowed." Here's a better question: Why are people so willing to just hand over our freedom? https://t.co/S6sLazh8Ln

However, she still stands by the tweet even though she deleted it:
Nice spin on that last tweet, too:
Sorry people were jerks. But fwiw the controversial part, for me, was that you asked how people could be "allowed" to have five biological children? If you want to scold women for their reproductive choices, you can. But that sounded awfully Handmaid's Tailish to me. https://t.co/8659qFB1Kh
