"The betrayal of the pro-life movement by Donald J. Trump sparked a fierce debate on the right. While any pro-life leaders call (...) to change course, MEGA activists respond furiously, demanding that they shut up and return to line," writes Jonathan Van Maren, describing interior friction in the bosom of supporters of Donald Trump.
According to extremist Trump supporters, pro-life activists should be eternally grateful that the erstwhile president kept his promises during his first administration. Now, on the another hand, they should refrain from showing that he has gone to average positions. pro-choice.
"This view is mistaken and strategically suicidal for the pro-life case. The stakes are besides advanced for the leaders of the movement to stay silent now. In fact, the short time remaining until election day is the best – and possibly the only – chance to influence Trump's abortion policy. With a tiny advantage in many key states, Trump now needs the support of conservatives – and he needs to be reminded of that”, Van Maren analyses.
As noted by the publicist, Trump's actions for the first time since 1984. The Republican organization is no longer explicitly pro-life, retaining its opposition only to the alleged late abortion. For example, on August 23, the Republican candidate stated that his administration would be "great for women and their reproductive rights". On August 25, his possible deputy JD Vance said Trump would veto a national abortion ban if he were to land on his desk. On August 29, Trump announced that “under his administration the government would pay all the costs related to the procedure in vitro or the insurance company will be obliged to cover them.’
According to Van Maren, many life-saving activists believe that Trump's pro-abortion return exists solely for the purposes of the election run and will vanish with the White House's takeover. Meanwhile, most pro-life movement representatives, specified as Vice president Mike Pence, have already disappeared from their surroundings to guarantee that life protection issues are given priority. Trump himself personally has always been pro-choice (which was clearly confirmed by his boy Eric Trump) and in fresh times repeated that in case of a possible choice he would be a completely different president than before.
Leading places in the future administration are to be occupied by Robert F. Kennedy Jr, a fresh pro-choice Democrat, and Tulsi Gabbard – besides a supporter of abortion and in vitro.
“Pro-lifters are aware that the Harris-Valz administration would be devastating to the substance of protecting life. Most of them besides realize that if the winning Republican organization strengthens in pro-abortion positions, the American pro-life movement will share the destiny of pro-lifters from Canada and the UK, where no of the major parties want to defend the rights of the unborn," Van Maren warns.
"Both scenarios would be a disaster," says the journalist, and points out that it is the last time to usage all available means of force to marginalize MEGA radicals and reconstruct Trump to the protection of life.
