Melania Trump made an extraordinary declaration in an eagerly awaited memoir to be published a month from election day: she is a passionate supporter of a woman’s right to control her own body – including the right to abortion.
“It is imperative to guarantee that women have autonomy in deciding their preference of having children, based on their own convictions, free from any intervention or pressure from the government,” the Republican nominee’s wife writes, amid a campaign in which Donald Trump’s threats to women’s reproductive rights have played a central role.
“Why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body? A woman’s fundamental right of individual liberty, to her own life, grants her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she wishes.
“Restricting a woman’s right to choose whether to terminate an unwanted pregnancy is the same as denying her control over her own body. I have carried this belief with me throughout my entire adult life.”
It’s not a conspiracy. She hates him. That’s not a secret.
I’m not disputing that, but hating him, and actively trying to undermine his candidacy with a leak from your memoirs are two very different things. That’s a nutty conspiracy.
Or maybe she just doesn’t give a shit what he thinks. Because she hates him.
Repeating the same thing doesn’t make it any more likely.
So you’re saying that, despite the mountain of evidence to the contrary, she doesn’t hate him?
And, despite the fact that she “cried in despair” when he won in 2016, she wants him to win in 2024?
None of that is rational. At all.
This is what I actually said. I don’t really have much more to add.
This is so tedious. Feel free to have the last word and continue believing your nutty theory but I’m done.
Wasn’t that in response to what would have been a “nutty conspiracy” about how she did it to help his campaign through some weird hope that low-information voters would somehow decide that means Trump is pro-abortion and change their vote?
