Donald Trump just committed to "no federal role" on the issue of abortion.

In other words, he's pro-choice now.

washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/… The pro-life movement is ready to go to war.

New statement from @sbaprolife: "We will oppose any presidential candidate who refuses to embrace at a minimum a 15-week national standard to stop painful late-term abortions while allowing states to enact further protections."

I think we need to have an honest conversation about abortion polling because some of you are freaking out and acting like you’re looking at these numbers for the first time.

Relax. Pro-life is still a winning issue. There is a path forward. And it starts with @GovRonDeSantis. What moves voters the most? What did Democrats spend $500M talking about in the 2022 midterms? EXCEPTIONS. Voters want exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother. That’s the most important issue. Outside those exceptions, voters are fairly pro-life.

Republicans need to figure out the abortion issue ASAP. We are getting killed by indie voters who think we support full bans with no exceptions.

Time for everyone to suck it up and unify behind @LindseyGrahamSC’s 15-wk bill w/ exceptions. That’s the play.

The alternative is… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… We just lost Wisconsin by like 15. If the pro-life movement doesn’t figure this out and get the GOP on board, the GOP is gonna just abandon the issue and eventually start telling voters they don’t care about saving babies.

Ego checks need to happen now. It’s do or die time.
