Trump’s remarks cap chaotic week for GOP on abortion

Quote

Donald Trump on Thursday told Republicans to talk more about abortion. But earlier this week, at a gathering of staunchly anti-abortion Southern Baptists, Trump didn’t mention the word — opting instead to talk of defending ‘innocent life.’

The contrast is indicative of how Republicans have often struggled to find a coherent message on the issue — eager to placate their base without alienating the middle.

The former president’s remarks capped a tumultuous week that showed just how much reproductive rights remain an electoral MILLSTONE for Republicans.

Has to pander to the base while hiding from everyone else.
