Hello everybody and thank you for tuning in to the weekly report. The abortion battle we don't need.

Former President Donald Trump infuriated many anti-abortion voters last week

when he refused to commit to national abortion restrictions and seemed to blame them for

Republican losses in the 2022 midterm elections. Trump even criticized the six weeks abortion

ban signed by Florida Governor and fellow Republican candidate Ron DeSantis.

So not only is Trump bulking at national restrictions but he is criticizing a state restriction.

What are pro-life voters to do? Politically, Trump may feel he does not need the pro-life vote

as much as he did in his previous presidential runs. After all, he is so far ahead in all primary

polls that absent an extremely unusual event, he is all but the presumptive Republican nominee.

He hasn't even felt compelled to participate in any of the primary debates,

skipping the first one to sit for a hugely popular interview with Tucker Carlson.

Trump has attempted to placate pro-life voters by repeating that he is the most pro-life president

in American history and by touting that the Supreme Court overturned Roe versus Wade

on his watch and with his nominees. He is positioning himself as a moderator and dealmaker

promising to finally make peace on the abortion issue after 52 years of political warfare.

It is understandable that Trump may feel he has more wiggle room on the abortion issue this time.

Pro-life voters are likely sufficiently angered by the rapid advance of cultural Marxism and

social chaos of the past three years under Biden that they are ready to jump at even the

possibility of a return to more socially conservative values to the White House.

After all, if pro-life voters just stay home on election day, they may end up with something far

worse than a generally friendly occupant in the White House. But it doesn't need to be this way.

I strongly believe that the more difficult the issue is, the more local should be the solution.
