There is no denying the fact that Trump has had a huge surge after being indicted.
It has not, however, stopped a major pro-life group from walking away from Trump.
After Trump stated that he believes abortion should stay at the state level, the Susan B. Anthony (SBA) Pro-Life America stated that it was done with him.
Bye…
Susan B. Anthony (SBA) Pro-Life America wants federal legislation that would block abortions after 15 weeks.
Trump’s stance is simply not acceptable to them, and it will cost him in the election, as this groups packs some serious punch.
SBA Pro-Life America president Marjorie Dannenfelser stated, “President Trump’s assertion that the Supreme Court returned the issue of abortion solely to the states is a completely inaccurate reading of the Dobbs decision and is a morally indefensible position for a self-proclaimed pro-life presidential candidate to hold.
“Life is a matter of human rights, not states’ rights.
“Saying that the issue should only be decided at the states is an endorsement of abortion up until the moment of birth, even brutal late-term abortions in states like California, Illinois, New York and New Jersey.
“The only way to save these children is through federal protections, such as a 15-week federal minimum standard when the unborn child can feel excruciating pain.”
Trump’s campaign was clearly worried about this, and issued a quick response.
His campaign stated, “Our focus here should be on saving lives and avoiding the Radical Left’s traps, not on dividing the pro-life community.
“The Radical Left, which includes late-term abortion advocates Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, is the only beneficiary when this happens.
“President Trump is the most pro-life President in American history, as pro-life leaders have stated emphatically on repeated occasions President Trump earned this distinction through the consistent pro-life advocacy and policies he pursued during his term in office, especially his unwavering support for the confirmation of three pivotal Supreme Court justices.
“He has pledged to continue these pro-life policies as the 47th President of the United States.
“Thanks to the Supreme Court’s recent decision, the States have now been empowered to take up the issue.
“Even though much work remains to be done to defend the cause of life, President Trump believes it is in the States where the greatest advances can now take place to protect the unborn.”
If SBA goes with DeSantis, this could close the gap between the two considerably, so this is something that has to be watched moving forward.
