Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Melania Trump joins Republican First Ladies in supporting abortion rights
Caption: Melania Trump joins Republican First Ladies in supporting abortion rights. Melania Trump has now aligned herself with a tradition of Republican former first ladies who support abortion rights, often diverging from their husbands' public stances. In a video promoting her upcoming book,Mrs. Trump highlighted women's "individual freedom," calling it an "essential right from birth”. This follows the release of a memoir excerpt where she reportedly takes a clearer pro-choice stance, contrasting with Donald Trump’s role in overturning Roe v. Wade. Melania’s position mirrors those of past Republican first ladies. In 1975, Betty Ford, while still in the White House, praised Roe as a "great decision.” Nancy Reagan eventually voiced her belief in "a woman's choice" after her husband Ronald Reagan left office, though her views were well-known within the White House. Similarly, Barbara Bush and Laura Bush revealed their pro-choice perspectives after their husbands, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, had left office.
