Trump Addresses Hundreds of Thousands Who Attended 2019 March for Life

1 Mins read

In a surprise appearance, President Donald Trump addressed pro-life advocates at the 2019 March for Life, telling them that “every life is worth protecting” and that he will veto any legislation that crosses his desk that “weakens the protection of human life.” Trump sent his message via large screens set up in the National Mall in Washington, D.C. for the March for Life Rally.

“Today, I have signed a letter to Congress to make clear that if they send any legislation to my desk that weakens the protection of human life, I will issue a veto. Every child is a sacred gift from God,” he said. “This is a movement founded on love and grounded in the nobility and dignity of every human life.”

Susan B. Anthony List (SBA List) President Marjorie Dannenfelser praised the President for his bold message. “A strong majority of Americans oppose taxpayer funding of abortion, domestically and abroad. President Trump is the most pro-life president our nation has seen and is keeping his promise to the pro-life Americans who swept him into office. Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats can continue pushing an extreme pro-abortion agenda at their own political peril,”

While mainstream media portrayed the 2019 March for Life as being attended by “thousands” and “tens of thousands,” a time-lapse video of the Jan. 18 event from beginning to end paints a rather different picture which suggests a much higher number.

March for Life president Jeanne Mancini told the crowd gathered at the National Mall for the Friday March for Life rally that she could not see the end of the crowd. “Seriously guys, I can’t even see the end of the crowd out there. This is unbelievable. It makes me nervous to say this, but, I think you might be the largest crowd ever. Literally, I just cannot see the end of you,” she said.

The event was attended by 400,000 in 2011, according to organizers. Life advocates estimated the march drew 650,000 in 2013.

The theme of this year’s march was “Unique from Day One,” to emphasize the settled biological fact that the pre-born are living, complete, and distinct human beings starting at fertilization.
