Melania Trump made an extraordinary declaration in an eagerly awaited memoir to be published a month from election day: she is a passionate supporter of a woman’s right to control her own body – including the right to abortion.
“It is imperative to guarantee that women have autonomy in deciding their preference of having children, based on their own convictions, free from any intervention or pressure from the government,” the Republican nominee’s wife writes, amid a campaign in which Donald Trump’s threats to women’s reproductive rights have played a central role.
“Why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body? A woman’s fundamental right of individual liberty, to her own life, grants her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she wishes.
“Restricting a woman’s right to choose whether to terminate an unwanted pregnancy is the same as denying her control over her own body. I have carried this belief with me throughout my entire adult life.”
Who gives a fuck what the former 3rd lady attempts to say?
I do when it totally goes against her own husband’s campaign.
Nah the campaign has released this prior to the book release because they think it makes trump look more balanced on women’s rights.
Remember, they’re not trying to win your vote, but “low information” swing voters who will decide who to vote for based on whatever meme they happen to remember.
I don’t see how this makes Donald Trump look more balanced on women’s right’s. Not when it’s already well-known that there’s a rift between him and her.
You’re not one of the idiots who’s vote they’re trying to win.
Who are those idiots? The MAGA faithful who’s votes they already have? Because who else will this sway?
