Re: Steel Reserve #91565
Trump can say whatever he wants. The GOP theocratic morons running for election are mostly 'no exception' people.
Birth control is not 100% effective and rape and incest are unlikely to be protected sex.it was a bad decision and the GOP will pay for it this Fall.
Top GOP governor candidate: Mich. abortion ban should cover rape, incest
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/...-ban-rape/
A leading Michigan gubernatorial candidate who said a child victim of rape and incest should carry her baby to full term is the latest Republican to express opposition to legislation that would allow abortions in such cases.
Tudor Dixon told interviewer Charlie LeDuff on his podcast, “No BS Newshour,” that procedures needed to save the “life of the mother” should be the only exception to abortion bans.
“Do you think you can win with that?” LeDuff asked. He dug in: “The question would be like, a 14-year-old who, let’s say, is a victim of abuse by an uncle, you’re saying carry that?”
Dixon responded, at times speaking over LeDuff: “Yeah, perfect example … okay … because I know people who are the product — a life is a life for me.”
During the interview, she also differentiated between the “health” and “life” of the mother.
Dixon joins a cohort of Republicans who have, amid the fall of Roe, pushed for abortion bans without exceptions for fetuses conceived through rape or incest. Last month, on the day that the landmark ruling was struck down, Mississippi House Speaker Philip Gunn said a hypothetical 12-year-old girl who was raped by a family member should carry the pregnancy to term.
“That is my personal belief,” he said. “I believe life begins at conception.”
He added: “Every life is valuable. And those are my personal beliefs.”
