Tactically, from campaign platform I disagree.

Riots have pushed suburban women toward Trump. The law and order message resonates.

Pelosi skirting the rules and targeting a hair salon for destruction pushes suburban women toward Trump. Just a bad look for such a powerful politician to come down on something so petty. Can be leveraged.

Media turned the abortion topic into emotion-only outrage topic long time ago. There's no reasoned conversation to have on it. Media will poke emotion over and over again to try and slap women back into their plantation.

Note this isn't disagreement with intent. Unless I've missed some nuance, in raw consideration of election votes I think everyone this resonates positively with were already on the Trump ticket, and with those this resonates negatively with this might reinforce tribes in pockets Trump has been making some walk away headway with.

Well I know that growing up Catholic my whole life, abortion is supposed to be a deal breaker. I was still pro choice for the longest time but am now pro life and it’s one of the most important issues for me; that and the riots/far left extremism. Catholic is something like 22% of the US population. That’s a big voting block. Any true Catholic, that really believes in the church’s teachings, will see the vocal pro life support as a huge win.

Perhaps that's the calculus.

Listened to one of Timcast IRL's guests this week describe that BLM and riots are turning off the hispanic community.

Not sure what the survey data says but it would be interesting how pro life polls.
