As previously covered by LifeSiteNews, at its 2024 nominating convention this month the GOP adopted a dramatically shortened platform drafted and promoted by Trump surrogates. It cut the party’s longstanding support for a constitutional amendment to ban abortion and a federal law extending equal protection to preborn babies in favor of leaving abortion policy to individual states. The platform also endorsed birth control (many common methods of which function as abortifacients) and embryo-destructive in vitro fertilization, and cut the old version’s opposition to same-sex “marriage” and the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2015 Obergefell ruling that forced all 50 states to recognize it.
“If you look at it, it has Donald Trump written all over it,” RNC co-chair and presidential daughter-in-law Lara Trump boasted when the full text was first released. “This is his platform.” Presidential son Eric Trump, Lara’s husband, has said that the changes are “reflective of my father and what he believes in,” and “my wife Lara who runs the RNC and what she believes in.”
