It's fucking mind boggling that abortion is still a successful issue.
My parents are severely in debt because they could only stay afloat with overtime, which stopped when Covid hit. They are voting Trump because "Who cares about our struggle when there are babies being harvested legally? They'll get to us once they finally ban abortion!"
This may or may not apply to your parents, but I have found that a LOT of folks who claim to really care about abortion really only use it as a way to avoid discussing the fact that they like a lot of what Trump or the GOP does but they know deep down it's evil.
For example, I know people who think locking up migrants and separating families is good. But they also know this makes them look like monsters. So whenever you press them on this, they will say "yeah but abortion kills MILLIONS every year!!!" But they don't actually care that much about abortion, they just want to deflect and shut down your objections to their other horrible views.
