Marjorie’s analysis of the latest Democratic debate and why the 2020 Democratic candidates don’t want to talk about abortion was published in the Washington Times. In talking about abortion, these candidates try to walk a fine line between appeasing a far-left base and alienating mainstream Americans with their deeply unpopular agenda, but in practice they all align with the abortion lobby:
