Some Republicans just don’t get tired of infringing on women’s rights. And of course they love to go viral, but not in a good way. A Michigan Republican candidate for governor went viral Monday for making a comment that said rape victims who become pregnant shouldn’t get abortions, according to NBC News.
On April Moss’ right-wing podcast Face The Facts, Garrett Soldano, a chiropractor and candidate for Michigan governor, said: “We must focus on ... defending the DNA when it's created,” adding that women need to “understand and know how heroic they are, and how unbelievable they are, that God put them in that moment.”
Soldano argued that abortions should not be considered for survivors because “they don't know if that baby inside of them could be the next president.”
