Trump’s Pardon Of Pro-Life Prisoners Alone Makes The Movement’s Votes For Him Worth It

Trump’s willingness to deliver early pro-life wins vindicates everyone who recognized him as a vessel for the fight for unborn babies.
25 Jan 2025 ~~ By Jordan Boyd


Amere four days into his second term, President Donald Trump made every single pro-lifers’ vote for him worth it by pardoning 23 people the Biden administration targeted for their peaceful opposition to abortion.
Trump’s Thursday afternoon executive order effectively nullified the Biden administration’s attempt to weaponize itself against mostly Christian activists who spent their time praying, worshipping, and evangelizing at abortion facilities across the nation. It also proved that all of the moaning, groaning, and grandstanding from “principled” pro-lifers about Trump betraying their base was completely unfounded and unwarranted.
It is true that Trump’s personal position on abortion is, at best, ambiguous. It was his mixed messaging on life in the womb that earned him the ire of several high-profile pro-life advocates and organizations ahead of the 2024 election. Some threatened to commit political suicide by withholding votes from Trump, while others twisted themselves in knots to justify siding with the most extreme candidate on abortion this country has ever seen.
~Snip~
With one stroke of the pen on the first week of his second term, he made history again. If the self-professed pro-life Republicans running Congress finally decide to bring U.S. code up to speed with voters’ belief about ending life in the womb, Trump could easily add the privilege of signing more protections for women and babies into law and repealing the FACE Act to his list of accomplishments.
For Trump, delivering the wins to the pro-life movement is not just a duty to the voters who helped sustain his re-election, but a “great honor” that vindicates everyone who accurately recognized his potential as a vessel for the fight to protect unborn babies from the start.


Commentary:
We should never forget that there was no popular groundswell for abortion in 1973.
Despite the reversal of Roe v. Wade, seven leftist lawyers horribly coarsened American society to this day.
We cannot overstate the damage they wrought.
Additionally, Trump will now enforce the Hyde Amendment

Okay, you clearly weren't around then, and don't know what you are talking about.

Here's the reality of Abortion in 1973. There were laws on the books in 45 states that were largely ignored and never enforced. Women would walk into their OB/GYN's office; he'd end the pregnancy, and write something else on the chart like "Pelvic Exam."

SCOTUS probably thought they were doing nothing really that controversial. In 1965, in the Griswold decision, they invalidated contraception laws for married couples and extended that to unmarried couples in 1972 with the Eisenstadt vs. Baird decision. These were just more unworkable laws they were taking off the books. Roe was just the natural progression after Griswold and Eisenstadt.

There was no drop in the birth rate in 1973, because the number of pregnancies ending in abortion didn't increase. There was no rise in the birthrate after Dobbs because women were still figuring out how to get abortions.

The problem is that prohibition never works even if a "majority" supports it.

It didn't work with Alcohol after the 18th Amendment. It's why the war on drugs has been a failure. It's why prostitution laws are essentially a joke (you can still find an escort service or happy-ending massage parlor).

Wrong.
There was ALWAYS a "ground swell for abortion".
Abortion was legal and common in the US until around 1870, when all those male military doctors left over from the Civil War, wanted all the midwives out of business so that they could take over.
And they did that by getting laws passed to make abortion illegal.

And laws against abortion have no legal basis.
You can't protect a fetus since it is not proven to have rights or even be sentient, and the rights of the mother to not be at risk by a fetus, has to be the over riding authority.

The majority always approved of abortion, and without abortion we eventually will over populate our resources and go extinct.
The only problem is that Roe vs Wade was a judicial decision, and that is not how you are supposed to make law. Congress should have passed a law to make it clear, 50 years ago.
 
The abortion debate has been settled. Each states voters decide. A great thing president Trump did with regards to it.

Wrong. States do NOT have the authority to violate the rights of any one single individual by outlawing abortion.
 
Nobody should be arrested for protesting outside abortion clinics. If a protester is hitting or physically touching others that is different.

Of course, the abortion advocates are very nasty people, provoking fight so that they can have people arrested.

This is just one small battle we must fight against the corrupt democrats

People can protest abortion but the majority of citizens want some access to it. So really it's settled. I dint care enough about the issue in the end. Why should I? The voters in each state decide so they are correct.
