REPORT: Trump Won’t Pick Strongly Pro-Life Candidate For VP, Tim Scott and Kristi Noem Deemed Too Hardline
The Gateway Pundit ^ | March 17, 2024 | Ben Kew

Donald Trump will not pick a hardline pro-life candidate as his running mate over concerns that it would be electorally unwise, according to latest reports.

NBC reported on Sunday that Trump has been asking about the positions of various potential vice-presidental picks on the issue, with particular concerns raised about Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem.

“The president understands it as a treacherous issue — one that you can actually trip up and fall on your face with,” said a source close to Trump. “He’s concerned it will have a drag on the ticket if they’re seen as holding too staunch a position.”

Trump’s apparent red line is someone who supports anything stricter than a six-week ban.

What about this headline/story posted at 626 pm today/yesterday’

“Trump says he’ll decide whether to support a national abortion ban ‘pretty soon’”

Sounds pro life to me.

Has to be a younger woman, PERIOD!

Kristi Noem is perfect.

Expect whoever it is to be pro-gay, as well.

Yup. All this means is that the MSM are desperate to inject abortion into the national debate in order to offset their clear disadvantage with the illegal immigration issue.

The pro lifers sunk 2022 when women came out in droves to vote against Republicans.

Exactly. So that's why we need to be pro-choice.

Satan has taken over many women’s souls, it seems. Only education and exposure to graphic images and videos of dismembered feti will change their minds. But if the Rats maintain power, truth will always be censored.

Better to win the election with a less than perfect presidential ticket, than to try for a perfect ticket which might lose both the WH and Congress.

George Bush is the perfect example. An ex-CIA Director that the uni-party preferred.

Probably Reagan’s greatest mistake of all.

Surely, DJT’s wise advisors are warning him to pick a younger version of himself.

Grenell is being lined up for Secretary of State according to Bannon. Even though he ignored Pompeo’s edicts and ran rainbow flags on his embassy.

Could be tilting towards Stefanik now, if Lake is out running for Senate.

“It shows that President Trump is not pro-life for humane reasons, but more for political ones.”

I strongly disagree. He IS pro-life for humane reasons - but he realizes that in order for a Presidential candidate to save the lives of millions of unborn babies - that candidate must WIN the election.

Please allow President Trump to finesse this difficult political third rail issue as he sees fit. You will definitely have a more pro-life President and save more babies if Trump wins than if he loses.

This is no more than another trial balloon. Trump has been testing the waters for some time now as he wants to pick a veep that will help him in November and will be a good candidate in ‘28.

No more Pences!

If the choice is between this speculation (wag) and a grain of salt I’ll take the salt.

I hope it’s that really cool Himalayan pink salt! :)

The question is who are his advisors these days? Kirchner isn’t there. Bannon isn’t. Meadows isn’t. Is it Lowendowski?

He won’t pick them because if he should die do you really want either one of them as President? I certainly don’t.

He picked Mike Pence so it would have to be a departure from him
