Former President Trump recently made remarks about wanting to protect women, accusing Vice President Kamala Harris of allowing criminal illegal immigrants into the U.S. Trump's speech highlighted concerns about criminals entering the country and posing a threat to women and girls.
In response, Harris shared a clip of Trump stating his intention to protect women, emphasizing his belief that he should be able to make decisions about what individuals do with their bodies. The clip shared by Harris did not include the full context of Trump's speech, which also addressed protecting women from migrants and foreign threats.
Senator Mike Lee criticized Harris for describing abortion as 'what you do with your body,' highlighting the contentious issue of late-term abortions. Lee expressed concern over the lack of consensus on this matter, particularly regarding the rights of unborn babies.
Virginia House of Delegates member Nick Freitas condemned Harris for supporting abortion up to the point of birth, labeling it as a disturbing stance. Harris, in an interview, reiterated her support for Roe v. Wade and emphasized the importance of women's rights to make decisions about their bodies.
The debate surrounding abortion restrictions and women's reproductive rights continues to be a divisive issue in American politics. While Trump has expressed his opposition to a federal abortion ban, Harris advocates for upholding Roe v. Wade and ensuring women's autonomy over their bodies.
