Former First Lady Melania Trump has decided to add a bit of spice to the ongoing abortion debate. That’s right—Melania has come out as pro-choice. Cue dramatic gasps, clutching of pearls, and possibly a confused look from her husband, who’s probably still wondering where his TV remote is.
At the ripe young age of 54 (because age is just a number, but in politics, it’s apparently important to mention), Melania decided to reveal the big news about whether her husband, the one and only Donald “I-take-credit-for-everything” Trump, had any clue about her views on the matter. You know, the guy who’s spent a good chunk of time high-fiving himself for the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade? Yeah, that guy.
During a Fox News interview (because where else would you drop such a bombshell, right?), Melania served up this piping hot tea: “He knew my position and my beliefs since the day we met.” Oh, so day one? Right next to the prenup discussion? “I believe in individual freedom,” she declared with the kind of authority that could only come from someone who once wore a “I really don’t care” jacket. “I want to decide what I want to do with my body.” Preach, girl!
But here’s the kicker: “I think, I don’t want government in my personal business,” Melania added. And honestly, who can blame her? I mean, nobody likes the government poking around, asking invasive questions like, “Do you want fries with that?” or “Can we legislate your uterus?”
Melania Trump: pro-choice advocate, lover of individual freedom, and definitely someone who’s not interested in sharing her Netflix password with the government—or anyone else for that matter.
