The topic of abortion rights continues to be a central and divisive issue in American politics, with recent statements from former President Donald Trump and Senate candidate Kari Lake highlighting the ongoing debate. Trump, speaking at a campaign event in Waukesha, Wisconsin, defended his role in overturning federal abortion rights, claiming that people are 'absolutely thrilled' with the post-Roe landscape. This assertion comes amidst a backdrop of significant public and political contention over abortion laws in the United States, particularly following the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Kari Lake, a Senate candidate, has also voiced her stance on abortion, indicating support for stringent abortion laws in Arizona. Her comments reflect a broader trend among Republicans to advocate for more restrictive abortion policies at the state level. This partisan divide over abortion is larger than ever, with a new analysis showing stark differences in opinion between Democrats and Republicans on the issue. The analysis suggests that abortion will be a critical issue in the 2024 presidential race, underscoring its importance in American political discourse.

Abortion is murder. Your right to do what you want ends the second you try to harm someone else. Especially a perfectly innocent unborn child. It is disgusting and abhorrent that any American is not 100% Pro Life.

personal freedom, a person should have control of what they want to do with their body
@Freedom762wks2W
This is not about your body, it is about the body of the innocent human being you want to murder.
the person that's having the kid should be the only one to choose to have an abortion or not but either way it's not my business
@Freedom762wks2W
No one has the right to chose to commit murder.
