Kari Lake Sure Can Flip Flop On Abortion!

By Tengrain — April 10, 2024

We like to do a little Then and Now now and then.

You know how it goes:

First, the Then...

.@KariLake in 2022: “Obviously I think Roe should be overturned…we have a great law on the books right now. If that happens, we will be a state where we will not be taking the lives of our unborn anymore.” pic.twitter.com/KtoaGBdiOT

...and now, the Now:

NEW: Arizona Republican Kari Lake comes out against Arizona abortion ban.

"I oppose today's ruling, and I am calling on Katie Hobbs and the State Legislature to come up with an immediate common sense solution that Arizonans can support."https://t.co/C4yZOu6jm3

If you can believe it, Lake seems to be on all sides of Women’s Health, depending on what is the most expedient, you know, in the moment.

So… what will Kari Lake’s genuine position be tomorrow?

Editor's Note (Frances Langum): Lake is not the only Arizona Republican tripping over their privates this morning to flip flop now that abortion is on the Arizona ballot, h/t Scarce:

Nice try MAGA Man but you voted for the Life at Conception Act which would ban abortion and IVF nationwide.

Collins: Republican state representative Matt Gress says todays ruling cannot stand. But it was just last year that he was pushing a bill to declare fetuses as people which obviously would make abortion illegal pic.twitter.com/BftTsaq0mR
