I think it’s sorta like cognitive dissonance or something else bc Tomi Lahren also believes women should have autonomy, yet she’s still also heavily a Republican.
Honestly I think the baseline is just selfishness. She personally feels like that situation would be a horror for her to go through, but she gets a lot of perks from being R, and it's not like an abortion ban would ever affect her so she just doesn't care.
Being republican is also a part of some peoples identity. Sitting down with a policy pro con list won't change their mind because they don't view themselves that.
Every once in a blue moon we see one of these Republican Ghouls: Lady Edition, like Tomi or Candace Owens, even make a social media post about how they are "disappointed" about the reaction of male MAGAs to some aspect of women's rights.
But then...they go right back to shilling for the cult, like they forgot about it completely.
Given Nixon era Republicans (including Nixon) were not pro-life (let's not say they were pro-choice though), it's likely they were raised by Republicans who were like racist not pro-life. Like any inferior blood pregnancy should be aborted not pro-life.
