I Voted for Trump Because Kamala Harris Has Nothing to Offer America But More Abortions

My family voted early in Florida this week, fulfilling a responsibility I had been eagerly waiting for the past four years to do. My brother, daughter, and 10-year-old grandson climbed into the car with us because he’s been bagging his mom to be allowed to fill in the oval next to President Trump’s name for weeks,  and we drove to the Clerk of the Court.

The line was short when we arrived. We received our ballots and headed to our booths. I stared at the ballot—a long one in Florida this year—with choices for president, senate, congress, local elections, judicial retention, and multiple amendments to the state constitution. At the top of the ticket, I saw President Trump and Senator Vance, with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz listed just below. My eyes moved back and forth between the names, and an unshakable thought filled my mind: How is this even close?

Kamala Harris has proven incapable of articulating clear, cogent points, delivering speeches that hover between nonsensical and incoherent. Her running mate, Tim Walz, is a man whose record is marred by deception and policies that have failed those he represents. It baffled me how such a ticket could stand on equal footing in this election.

Even setting aside Harris’s disjointed rhetoric and Walz’s weak leadership, their positions on life are indefensible. Harris voted against the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, a bill ensuring that babies who survive abortion attempts receive the same medical care as any other newborn of the same gestational age. Walz, as Governor of Minnesota, oversaw policies that effectively legalized infanticide. Eight babies under his watch were left to die—helpless, shivering, and gasping for air—on cold gurneys. How can anyone defend this, and how is this election even close?

Harris and Walz support the so-called Women’s Health Protection Act, a bill that would enshrine unlimited abortion until birth as federal law. This legislation would obliterate protections for unborn children, including parental involvement laws. They dismiss late-term abortions as myths, ignoring the horrific reality of babies who survive such procedures only to be left to die. Harris and Walz would have you believe these children are better off dead. How is this election even close?

Dr. Anthony Levatino, a former abortionist, once described the brutal reality of late-term abortion: “Once you’ve grasped something inside [the uterus], squeeze on the clamp to set the jaws and pull hard—really hard. You feel something let go, and out pops a fully formed leg about six inches long. Reach in again and grasp anything you can…and out pops an arm.” This grotesque procedure is not met with hesitation by Harris and Walz—it is defended under the false banner of “choice.” How is this election even close?

Harris’s track record is equally chilling. She supports funding unlimited abortion, bypassing parents when a minor seeks one, and advocates for military abortions. She championed the suspension of health regulations for chemical abortions, putting countless women at risk. She denies the science proving that unborn babies feel pain when dismembered late in pregnancy. Her stance is not just callous—it is inhuman. How is this election even close?

Walz’s policies in Minnesota reflect his own disregard for life. Aside from championing extreme pro-abortion laws, his mishandling of the COVID-19 crisis led to the admission of COVID-19 patients into nursing homes, causing a tragic spike in elderly deaths. He eliminated laws requiring parental involvement before a minor’s abortion and repealed the Positive Alternatives Act, which provided vital support to expectant mothers. His legacy is one marked by death, neglect, and disregard for the most vulnerable. How is this election even close?

As I stood there, ballot in hand, the names Harris and Walz conjured images of dead babies, abandoned teens, and elderly victims of failed leadership. In contrast, Trump and Vance represent life, hope, and a future that values every human being. Trump’s record speaks for itself: the appointments of Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett to the Supreme Court, an unprecedented expansion of the Mexico City Policy, and steadfast defense of pro-life principles at the U.N., G7, and in federal law.

President Trump ensured that taxpayer dollars would not fund abortions by including Hyde Amendment protections in COVID-19 relief packages and cutting funding to the U.N. Population Fund for its involvement in forced abortions in China. He signed an executive order to protect babies who survive abortion attempts and created the Human Fetal Tissue Research Ethics Advisory Board to curb unethical research practices. Trump even became the first president to attend the March for Life, declaring, “We believe in the eternal truth that every child, born and unborn, is made in the Holy image of God. I will always defend the sacred right to life.”

How is this election even close?

My grandson’s voice interrupted my thoughts, asking if I was done. I realized I hadn’t yet marked my ballot. I smiled at him and said, “Give me a minute,” knowing full well that my vote would help widen the gap for the most pro-life president in history. I filled in the ovals for Trump/Vance, Senator Rick Scott, and Congressman Gimenez, and I voted against deadly Amendment 4.

I fed my completed ballot into the machine, silently praying, “God be with us.”
