“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.”
“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.”
— Melania Trump, Melania (2024)
Thanks, I knew I had read her position somewhere.
EXTREMELY disturbing.
I notice she doesn’t give one thought to the baby. What about the baby’s “fundamental right” to its own life? Her view is incredibly selfish and heartless and my respect for her is now gone.
Quotes from Melania Trump’s 2024 Memoir
****************************************
I find the latter two quotes to be... sad.
A woman’s “power to determine what she does with her own body” is when she makes the choice with whom and when to have sex.
(IF that power is taken from a woman, IDK as I have not been in a situation like that. However, I know what I would hope I would have done...)
