Melania says Trump told Fox News on Sunday that her views on abortion came as no surprise to her husband.
“Yes, he knew my position and my beliefs since the day we met, and I believe in individual freedom,” she told host Maria Bartiromo.
“I want to decide what I wanted to do with my body. I think I don’t want government in my personal business,” she added.
Meanwhile, Kamala Harris will go on a media blitz this week as she sits down for interviews with The View, late-night host Stephen Colbert and radio host Howard Stern with just 30 days left until the election.
Meanwhile Donald Trump on Sunday will rally in Wisconsin, the day after a lie-filled event with Elon Musk at the venue in Butler, Pennsylvania where he survived an assassination attempt just three months ago.
Billionaire and ardent Trump supporter Elon Musk joined the former president onstage at the rally, marking the first time the Tesla CEO has publicly appeared at a Trump campaign event since he endorsed him shortly after the shooting in July.

“I want to decide what I wanted to do with my body. I think I don’t want government in my personal business,” she added.
Melania’s views on abortion have been included in her forthcoming memoir, despite the former president bragging that he brought an end to Roe v. Wade.

Speaking at the site where he was nearly assassinated in July, the former president declared: “Not that I use the teleprompters too much… We don’t need it. This one was right smack in the sun.” Minutes earlier, Mr Trump appeared to read off the teleprompter as he introduced Elon Musk on stage in Butler, describing how the billionaire “created the first major American car company in generations.”

JD Vance confirms to reporters that second Trump administration would seek to defund Planned Parenthood
JD Vance reportedly said that a potential second Trump administration would seek to defund Planned Parenthood.
“On the question of defunding Planned Parenthood…our view is we don’t think that taxpayers should fund late term abortions,” he told Real Clear Politics. “That has been a consistent view of the Trump campaign the first time around, it will remain a consistent view.”
While Planned Parenthood does provide reproductive healthcare services, Vance is lying. The organization does not “fund late term abortions.”
Planned Parenthood does provide women’s healthcare services — like cancer screenings — in addition to abortions.
