Here’s another aspect of where Rudy Giuliani stands on abortion that is rarely acknowleged. It’s unfortunately true that he believes legal abortion to be sound public policy. But he also believes that the issue of abortion should be decided in the political arena (namely state legislators and state referendums), not by judicial fiat. In that regard, his view is no different than that of the pro-life movement.

“he also believes that the issue of abortion should be decided in the political arena... not by judicial fiat.”

First off I don’t trust that’s Rudy’s real position, I think it’s his public strategic way of looking less evil than he really is. IIRC he said he’s fine with Roe staying the way it is-—IOW he could care less if it does not affect him. He’s a two faced fork tongued politician of the worst kind.

Secondly the final objective of the majority in the pro-life movement is the equivalent of a human life amendment which is far beyond just overturning Roe.
