Pro-life leaders react to Trump victory: 'Clear rejection of extreme abortion agenda'

[Michie]

Leaders of pro-life advocacy groups are celebrating former President Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election, citing his win as evidence that the American people do not support the unfettered abortion access endorsed by the Democrats.

In a statement published Wednesday, Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser reacted to the results of the election, which she noted was the first presidential contest to take place after the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson decision determining that the U.S. Constitution does not contain a right to abortion.

In Tuesday’s election, the Republican ticket of Trump and Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, defeated the Democratic ticket of Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.

Yes, it is a good thing that the attempt to impose a federal abortion law on dissenting states has failed. But this was not the reason that Trump won.

I believe that opposition to a federal law in support of abortion on demand is one of the reasons Donald Trump and the GOP won.

We dodged some bullets with this election. We did not dodge them all, as several states removed abortion restrictions. What we need to do now is get to work at the grass roots level to promote compassion for the unborn and tighten restrictions for when they are not medically necessary.

Amen.

The best way to promote a pro life position is to keep a low profile right now, most Americans remain ok about abortion and putting the issue center stage is dangerous. Pro life has all the tools/laws/institutions in place but now they need to change hearts and minds

I would say just the opposite. Keeping a low profile so as not to offend a bare majority of people is what got us where we are today, with state recognition of same-sex relationships as "marriages" and Christians under threat of being fired if they don't use a coworker's "preferred pronouns."

I think a lot of people think of abortion as a very abstract thing. But if someone wanted to debate conditions under which it was acceptable for a mother to kill her 6-month-old baby, you wouldn't engage with him in polite discourse, you'd say "what's wrong with you?" A suggestion like that is so obviously evil and unthinkable that it doesn't warrant being taken seriously.

In the same way, when people suggest that a mother should be able to kill her baby prior to birth, it doesn't warrant being taken seriously. It's infanticide, plain and simple, and people need to be ashamed even to support it privately, never mind publicly.

Pro life has all the tools/laws/institutions in place

Not really. What's needed now is a law or Supreme Court decision that bans infanticide outright. Maybe if Trump is able to appoint another justice or two, we'll get that in the coming years.

Well said, I completely agree.
