Reid Made the Comments During Her Show, ‘The ReidOut’

During her show on Tuesday, Reid said that the amendment’s failure was a “disgrace” and that it showed that the United States is “not a democracy.”

“We are a fascist-type government,” Reid said. “We are a country where the minority rules and the majority is silenced.”

Reid’s Comments Have Been Criticized by Some

Reid’s comments have been criticized by some, who say that they are over-the-top and that they do not accurately reflect the state of democracy in the United States.

Others have defended Reid’s comments, saying that they are a reflection of the growing frustration with the state of politics in the United States.

Amendment 2 Was Defeated by a Margin of Almost 60%

Amendment 2 was defeated by a margin of almost 60%, with 56% of voters voting against it.

The amendment was opposed by a coalition of anti-abortion groups, including the Florida Catholic Conference and the Florida Baptist Convention.

Pro-Choice Groups Are Disappointed by the Amendment’s Failure

Pro-choice groups are disappointed by the amendment’s failure, saying that it will make it more difficult for women in Florida to get abortions.

The groups say that they will continue to fight for abortion rights in Florida and across the country.
