Melania Trump defended her belief in individual freedom and autonomy in deciding about abortion, which she expressed in her upcoming memoir. She stated that women have the right to decide about their bodies without government intervention. The former first lady emphasized the importance of individual freedom and the right to terminate a pregnancy if desired. Melania shared her views on abortion for the first time publicly ahead of the election, causing some to question if voters would change their opinions of her husband, former President Donald Trump. However, Melania stated that Donald Trump respected her beliefs and allowed her to express them in her book. Trump himself has had a shifting stance on abortion, celebrating the overturning of Roe v. Wade and advocating for limits on abortion during his presidency. Most recently, he expressed support for a 15-week abortion limit at the federal level. Melania and Donald Trump’s differing views on abortion highlight the complexity of the issue in American politics.
