The party scrambles to unify on an issue that became a major obstacle for GOP candidates in last year’s midterm elections.
Former president and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump addresses the Pray Vote Stand Summit, organized by the Family Research Council in Washington on Sept. 15. Former president Donald Trump went off his teleprompter last month in a ballroom full of evangelical activists, warning in stark terms that abortion could be a Republican loser in next year’s elections.“Politicians, they just don’t know how to talk about this issue,” Trump said at the Pray, Vote, Stand Summit.
“I am confident we will arrive at a place that is principled, philosophically consistent and politically pragmatic,” said Ralph Reed, the chairman of the Faith & Freedom Coalition. “But it is going to be a highly organic conversation, and it won’t always be pretty.
The same playbook appears to be playing out now in the Kentucky governor’s race this year, where Gov. Andy Beshear has beenagainst his Republican opponent Daniel Cameron with a childhood rape survivor who calls Cameron’s abortion position “unthinkable.” Cameron has supported a state law that bans abortion without exceptions, but he has also said he would sign legislation adding exceptions if they came to his desk.
DeSantis, who signed a six-week law in Florida, surprised viewers at the second primary debate when he joined former vice president Mike Pence and South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott in supporting the 15-week federal law.Kellyanne Conway, a 2016 campaign manager for Trump who still advises Republicans on abortion messaging, said the party should embrace the federal 15-week “minimum standard.
In the presidential race, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley has taken the lead in arguing that Republicans should focus federal efforts not on a certain number of weeks but on what can actually pass in Washington.“How many weeks are you for? How many exceptions are you for? And so on. But these questions miss the point if the goal is saving as many lives as possible,” she said in an April 25 speech.
