Abortion is something Republicans would rather not have to discuss considering their platform is counter to public opinion on the matter. (Politico)

As soon as ‘Roe V. Wade’ was overturned the spotlight centered squarely on the GOP and their 1/2 century crusade to strip abortion rights away from the general public. Donald Trump had the political wherewithal to immediately recognize the issue would be really bad for the GOP and he was right. As new cases of women scrounging for access to abortion care make national headlines the hardline anti -abortion stance is not in any winning playbook but certain GOP factions won’t budge. And these factions vote in full force. Therein lies their dileman.
