POTUS can't "protect abortion". That's a legislative matter.
Again, being too literal. I would *absolutely* campaign on abortion rights. Remind voters that Trump is very satisfied that his Supreme Court picks took away women’s rights. “Imagine what the next ones will do!” Remind people that Kamala is a sex-crime Prosecutor. Call him “Rapist in Chief” a few times and get under his skin. Remind people that Vance was loudly in favor of a national abortion ban until a couple weeks ago when he cravenly decided to hitch onto Trump’s behind.
My personal preference would be Pete, because he’s really smart and well spoken, but I’m pretty OK with Gretchen. She’s from Michigan, a swing state where the Democrats need help and where she’s popular, Dems having just climbed out of the hole there recently. A double female ticket would be a novelty, certainly, but it would galvanize women, and make the contest clear and distinct: two intelligent women versus two crazy MAGA men. I see that as a distinction I could sell. You would re-solidify the black vote, overwhelmingly take the youth and women vote, and concede the angry old rural men vote. Trump would peel off some Hispanics, but he’s already doing that with the macho-nacho thing.
“Abortion” is a big time winning issue for Democrats. Don’t pretend it shouldn’t exist. It does. The President appoints USSC justices. That’s enough to make it big.
