When Ronald Reagan was in is first months as governor, some adviser told him to sign a law. Unfortunately, he did sign it, and only learned about this issue later. But as soon as he learned about it, he was always 100% pro-life.
In fact, he wrote a book in 1983, called Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation, and he talked about signing that bill, which was always the ONLY mistake he ever mentioned in his political career.
He spoke about abortion at the 1986 State of the Union address, which I don't think any president has done since. You are being deceptive, he didn't make any secret of what happened, but he was by far the most pro-life president we've ever had.
When Trump was going to run Reform in 2000, he was strongly pro-choice.
It’s so sickening to see a conservative forum filled with people attacking conservatives. I feel like I’m posting on DU nowadays. The hatred for conservatives is breathtaking.
The Republican party is not a personality cult and we have the First Amendment right to have our speech heard rather than being canceled for trying to protect babies.
Reagan gave a speech from the White House that was broadcast there on one of my trips to the March. He was gently scolded by one of the prominent leaders there (it may have been Judie Brown of the American Life League) for his failure to adopt one particular pro-life measure or another (I forget which one it was), and his response was such a pathetic, simpering display of moral cowardice that I never went back.
