Describe a pro-choicer who voted for Donald Trump in 2020

[Blow by blow, the passion dies]

Libertarian Republican

[NotSoLucky]

My mom

[TheReckoning]

BG-NY

[President Johnson]

Spark (D-PA)

[TransfemmeGoreVidal]

Secular “law and order” types.

[TML]

Someone whose main concern was something other than abortion and was ideologically aligned with Trump on that issue.

[TDAS04]

Some rich people who voted their economic interests.

[dw93]

Secular law and order types and far leftist accelerationists who thought a vote for Trump would give them a far left nominee to vote for in 2024.

[Alben Barkley]

Apparently lots in Kansas and other red/purple states that have shot down abortion restrictions over the last year. That kinda destroyed the traditional narrative that a lot of the GOP's support in those states came solely from opposition to abortion, when Trump overperformed abortion restrictions practically everywhere they came up for a vote. Utah might be the only state I can think of where he probably wouldn't have.

[I Will Not Be Wrong]

Many in Trump's family, if not himself.

[The Right Honourable Martin Brian Mulroney PC CC GOQ]

Many people apparently. Polling consistently finds that pro-choicers outnumber pro-lifers, and some state ballot measures show the same. Like Alben Barkley pointed out, even red states like Kansas, Kentucky and Montana rejected anti-abortion propositions. I mean, Kentucky, a bible belt state that Trump won by 26 points. So clearly there's a good number of Kentuckians who voted for Trump but wouldn't vote to ban abortion. And it's not just Kentucky, at this point, the GOP probably has more pro-choicers than Democrats have pro-lifers. The GOP base is certainly very pro-life, which means they can never abandon this issue, but apparently there are enough pro-choicers who are willing to vote Republican in spite of that disagreement

Yeah, and actually I take back what I said about even Utah voting more against abortion than for Trump. For some reason I forgot just by how much he won by there in 2020. It's still very plausible that an anti-abortion vote would do worse than Trump there, in addition to I believe quite possibly all 49 other states.

[Cyrusman]

Um this is not that rare. There are plenty of pro choice republicans that are around, especially outside of the south. They aren't a majority, but plenty of them exist. I voted for Trump and I'm pro-choice, but abortion is far down the list of my main concerns and Trump barely even spoke about abortion. When you think of Trump, you don't think of abortion.

[ModerateRadical]

Plenty of those in South Florida, I imagine

Florida is a pro-choice red state. Wyoming at least was at one point and Montana might still be one. Alaska would be a good example but Alaska's future as a red state is guarded at this point.

Pro-Choice Republicans outnumber Pro-Life Democrats almost by 2:1, if you trust most EPs.

[Stranger in a strange land]

This isn't that rare. IIRC (and this is half-remembered, so possibly out-of-date information) that the split within each party on abortion is about 70/30, rather than the 90/10 (or more recently 95/5) that you normally see among elected officials these days.

Edit: okay, yeah I was only a little bit off per the NY Times 2020 exit poll:

Which comes closest to your position? Abortion should be:

Legal (51% of voters)
Trump: 24%
Biden: 74%

Illegal (42% of voters)
Trump: 76%
Biden: 23%

I know a couple, both were younger white suburban upper middle class voters. Who are hard fiscal conservatives and are pretty socially conservative too, they just believed that people should have the right to an abortion Libertarian republican is probably a fair characterization they were big potheads as well and in favor of drug decriminalization. They voted Yes on Prop 1 last year and probably voted Straight R.
