Melania Trump to champion abortion in upcoming memoir: ‘Fundamental right’
LifeSite News ^ | Wed Oct 2, 2024 - 7:49 pm EDT | Jonathon Van Maren

Melania Trump has done her best to stay out of the spotlight throughout her husband’s presidential tenure and political career. Now, in a memoir titled Melania set to be published a month before election today, she has openly chosen a side in America’s abortion wars. The Guardian obtained a copy of the memoir, and published the former—and possibly future—First Lady’s pro-abortion declaration:

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.

“Why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body?”

Unless the DNA of the baby is identical to Mom’s, and it isn’t, it’s not “her own body”.

One way to rectify your suspicions is to buy her autobiography which happened to be released yesterday. If she didn’t say these quotes, that’s the easiest way to find out.

I hate to break this to people who are clearly still in denial...

BUT WE ARE NO LONGER A REPUBLIC.

Vote for Trump.

Restore our republic.

We can argue over abortion AFTER we restore our republic.

Because I will guarantee you that if Deep State stays in power infanticide will be legal soon in all 50 states if we don’t.

RESTORATION OF THE REPUBLIC COMES FIRST.

“It’s another body all together with unique DNA, fingerprints etc. It’s a separate person”

I agree with you.

Thank you for the reminder about the party platform.

Good followup reply, I appreciate it!!!

“Nobody is defined by a single issue.”

I didn’t write that phrase.

Are the second and third paragraphs quotes? I don’t see quotation marks.

Or are they the article authors beliefs, strategically placed to look like they came from the book.

Some of you people here (who should know better) fall for MORE MEDIA baloney...

Sigh - our side gets so distracted that the other side has a clear path....

How many here are going nuts when they backed Clarence Thomas and said what his wife said/did had no bearing on his SCOTUS decisions? They were right then and now they harbor doubts about our one best hope.

When it comes to churches the catholic church was about the first to start producing pro-abortion advocates. I know because I watched it happen to my sister. They had some kind of classes that she went to that were called something like Lamaz. I don’t know how to spell it. They taught worldly liberal ideas. They polluted her mind. Just because someone worships the catholic church does not make them christian. The same is true for the other churches as well.

Where are the big media companies on this abortion report?

If it's wrong...they're gonna get sued. Melania has sued the media before...and she won.

Melania says she was “raised Catholic”. That does not mean she is a practicing Catholic.
