Proposing to ban abortion outright is not going to help women in any way, and in some cases, can be severely detrimental to women's health. Rape victims who were made pregnant would have to keep the child - traumatising for the mother and possibly for the child as well.
Oh no, I hope you're not trying to paint every republican with the same misogynist brush just because they are willing to accept anti-women planks and vote for the candidates that indorse them. Surely you realize that they may actually support the party and its candidates for completely unrelated reasons. It may not be that they themselves embrace misogynist positions. Perhaps legislating the uterus is merely acceptable collateral damage from A Theist's point of view.
