Former President Donald Trump says Americans need to remember that Democrats are the radical on abortion because they support killing babies in abortions up to birth.
In recent comments on abortion, Trump made two major points about the state of abortion in America. First, Trump says pro-life Republicans need to be willing to compromise — allowing exceptions in cases of life of the mother, rape and incest — which some state abortion bans already have — in exchange for protecting the other 96% of babies from abortions who are killed in abortions merely done for birth control.
“And I have to tell you, the pro-lifers now have tremendous power to negotiate, which they didn’t have before the ruling,” Trump said recently. They have to understand how to talk about it. Because Republicans, you’re going to have to learn how to talk about it.”
“I have to tell you from a conservative and Republican standpoint, you have to learn how to talk about pro-life, you have to learn how to talk about that decision,” Trump said. “Because you don’t know how to talk about it.”
“Pro-lifers have a tremendous power now with that termination [of Roe] to negotiate. They had none,” he continued. “They didn’t have any before that ruling. They had no power whatsoever, [people] could kill babies at any time they wanted, including after what we would call birth. They could kill babies. Now [pro-lifers] have tremendous power.”

“But on pro-life, I will tell you what I did on Roe v. Wade, nobody else, for 50 years they’ve been trying to do it. I got it done,” Trump said in an interview in May. “And now we’re in a position to make a really great deal, and a deal that people want.”
“We’re in a position now — and I’m going to be leading the charge — we’re in the position now where we can get something that the whole country can agree with, and that’s only because I got us out of the Roe v. Wade where the pro-life people had absolutely nothing to say,” he said.
“Like President Ronald Reagan before me, I support the three exceptions, for rape, incest, and the life of the mother,” Trump said recently.. “In terms of running, you have to go with your heart; you have to go with what you want. But to me, the three exceptions are very important. I think to a large portion of people on this issue are very important.”
The second main point Trump has made is that Democrats are the true radical on abortion.
And he’s right. Joe Biden supports abortions up to birth, Kamala Harris is America’s abortion cheerleader, many blue states have passed measures for abortions up to birth and Democrats in Congress want to pass a new law overturning every pro-life law in the nation to allow killing babies all 9 months for any reason.
“Remember, the Democrats are the radicals on this issue. We’re not the radicals on this issue,” he continued. “The Democrats are the radicals because they’re willing to kill babies in their fifth and sixth and seventh and eighth and ninth month and even after birth.”
“The Democrats are the extremists on this issue,” Trump said.
That’s a framework pro-life Americans can use to shift the abortion debate back in the pro-life direction — putting the onus on Democrats to explain why they support unlimited abortions up to birth. Polls consistently show most Americans oppose that.
