"Melania’s decision to endorse the Democratic position on abortion is another blow to pro-lifers, and yet more evidence that the Trump family was never pro-life. It is true that Donald Trump honored his deal with the pro-life movement in 2016; it is also true that Eric Trump told the press during the RNC that his father had always remained in favor of abortion, nonetheless. Eric’s wife Lara, the current co-chair of the Republican National Convention, is also firmly in the pro-abortion camp. When asked about their views, Donald Jr. and Eric have been careful to only condemn late-term abortion."

Melania Trump has done her best to stay out of the spotlight throughout her husband’s presidential tenure and political career. Now, in a memoir titled Melania set to be published a month before election today, she has openly chosen a side in America’s abortion wars.

The Guardian obtained a copy of the memoir, and published the former – and possibly future – First Lady’s pro-abortion declaration:

It is imperative to guarantee that women have autonomy in deciding their preference of having children, based on their own convictions, free from any intervention or pressure from the government. Why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body?

A woman’s fundamental right of individual liberty, to her own life, grants her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she wishes. Restricting a woman’s right to choose whether to terminate an unwanted pregnancy is the same as denying her control over her own body. I have carried this belief with me throughout my entire adult life.
