Donald Trump attempted to strike a new tone on the issue of abortion this week, saying he would be “great for women and their reproductive rights” — to the frustration of anti-abortion advocates.
Democrats frequently use the phrase “reproductive rights” as a stand-in for abortion but also to refer more broadly to a range of medical practices related to child-bearing, such as birth control and in vitro fertilization. Support for reproductive rights, when invoked by Democrats, almost always means support for access to abortion. In contrast, Republicans rarely talk about abortion in that way, and anti-abortion advocates quickly took notice of Trump’s tonal shift.
Lila Rose, founder of the anti-abortion group Live Action, speaking on her podcast on Friday, criticized Trump for trying to “ingratiate himself with those that are pro-abortion” with his use of the phrase.
“Not only is it not principled, it’s not going to help the Trump campaign to be trying to sound like a Democrat right now,” Rose said.
This weirdo thinks women have no memory.
I’m shocked that the guy that very clearly doesn’t see women as human thinks they won’t remember all the awful shit he’s done to make their lives worse.
He’s a rapist. He says he can grab women by the pussy. He’s cheated on every one of his wives. Why any woman likes him is beyond me.
Frankly, that shouldn’t be limited to women. That’s abhorrent behavior, and frankly it speaks volumes about each and every one of his voters.
