REMINDER: On Abortion, Donald Trump and Abe Hamadeh are One and the Same
Last week, Donald Trump endorsed Abe Hamadeh for Congress in AZ-08 because, like Trump, Abe Hamadeh is an Abortion Extremist
ARIZONA- Last week, Donald Trump announced his endorsement of Abe Hamadeh with a Truthsocial post detailing how Hamadeh fits in with the extreme MAGA Republican agenda– seemingly leaving out how Hamadeh has been in lockstep with Trump’s extreme anti-Arizona abortion stances.
One and the same: Donald Trump and Abe Hamadeh fight for extreme abortion bans:
- After the overturning of Roe v. Wade, Trump took credit for the ruling and issued a statement claiming it was “the biggest WIN for LIFE in a generation”. Abe said the same thing, stating that the verdict was a “huge win for life” and a sign that Republicans should “go on offense” with the issue of abortion.
- Abe Hamadeh has tweeted that “abortion is not a Constitutional right” and that it is a “death sentence.” This is right in line with Trump’s view that “there has to be some form of punishment” for women who have abortions.
- Both Trump and Hamadeh have been pushing for a national abortion ban, with Abe pledging to uphold Arizona’s draconian territorial law banning all abortion. When Trump was asked if he would sign a six-week national abortion ban he said “I’m looking at all [options].”
