Donald Trump has become the first US president to attend America's largest annual anti-abortion rally, in an effort to shore up evangelical support ahead of the November election
US President Donald Trump, seeking to shore up evangelical support ahead of the November election, addressed the country's biggest annual anti-abortion rally on Friday as the Senate sat in judgment
"They are coming after me because I am fighting for you and we are fighting for those who have no voice," he told the crowd."And we will win because we know how to win.""Life begins at conception," she told AFP.As for impeachment, she said Democrats"have no evidence" that Mr Trump did anything wrong.
Brayden Harris, 16, who came to Washington from Hershey, Pennsylvania, with the"pro-life" club of his school, said"abortion is wrong”."God says he knows you before you're even born, so in the womb, he knows you," Mr Harris said.The March for Life began in 1974 after the US Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision.
Since taking office in 2017, Mr Trump has strengthened the Supreme Court's 5-4 conservative majority, naming two justices who oppose abortion - Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh - and galvanizing abortion opponents.Conservative-leaning Chief Justice John Roberts is seen as the potential swing vote if the constitutionality of abortion eventually comes before the court.
