..abortion or reveal to the voters how anti abortion they might be in real life.....#1 , wouldn't many of these republicans, frequently just try to push many anti abortion measures through if they are elected? And, #2, they are still very anti abortion irl right? that doesn't really change much , that's the way they really feel in their personal life and are just trying to hide it?

Never made sense to me how people like Trump are so anti-abortion given his wandering tendancies. If it weren't for abortion, illegitimate Trump's would be everywhere.



Because the cruelty is the point.

Trump isn't anti-abortion, but his base is, so he went for it.

They're in a bit of a bind on abortion.

If they just don't talk about it at all or come out as pro-choice, they're going to tick off their evangelical base. If they tick them off they're cooked.

If they mention any restrictions, they lose. This is the way of things since Roe was overturned. The Democrats were handed a powerful weapon that day and for once they haven't squandered its use.

No, you see, they're against other people getting an abortion. It's totally different.

Anyway, you'd think that somewhere along the way one of these dickburgers would come to the realisation that if they're being actively told not to reveal their policies/stances to avoid losing votes, then their stance is probably objectively wrong. But not one of them is self aware enough for that.

Yes. Because his base is anti-abortion, so he put up anti-abortion judges. He doesn't care about abortion, but does care about his base's reaction to things he does. He wants cheers, applause, etc.

Trump doesn't give a shit either way about abortion. Or anything else beyond his own needs.

If he believed that supporting abortion on demand and taking everyone's guns away were the best route to personal gain, he'd adopt those positions in a heartbeat.

Which is what makes people's devotion to him so baffling. He has zero principles.

Well you're misinterpreting things here. Trump isn't necessarily saying how he feels on abortion. He's telling other Republicans to shut the fuck up on the issue because somehow he's the only one smart enough to recognize what a turnoff it is for moderates critical for a Presidential win.

Painted themselves right into a corner. They may get hammered for a generation over abortion.

Trump would never be punished for forcing someone he slept with to get an abortion though.

The Supreme Court overturning Roe during an election year (an absolutely moronic move) is part of what ruined the midterms for the GOP.

Even Trump is smart enough to realize that and how it's a touchy issue that's best swept under the rug for Republicans. Talking about abortion more will only hurt them.

Trump doesn't actually care about abortion, he only publicly opposes it because radical GOP voters do and he has to pander to them. If it was up to him Roe wouldn't have been overturned, since that event damaged his political interests. But he can't openly admit that, though, hence why instead he just wants the party to go silent on the matter.

He's not anti abortion. And he will keep getting them even if it becomes illegal.

What he is, is someone who intends to inflict hate on others while never abiding by any hateful laws enacted.

Like any Republican.

Every year is an election year; Republicans are happier to have Roe overturned than they would be with additional seats.

Only the true believers. Not the ones who are only in it for money and power. The latter group was only saying, "abortion is murder, I'm overturning the hell out of Roe!" in order to attract the crazy vote, without any real interest in actually doing it (due to the political consequences).
