After Bernie Moreno questioned why women "past 50" would be concerned about abortion, Nikki Haley fired back with a pointed question for him.

Former GOP presidential hopeful Nikki Haley criticized Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno after he questioned why women "past 50" would be concerned about abortion.

Moreno, who is challenging the seat held by Ohio Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown, issued his remarks during a Warren County town hall on Friday:


“You know, the left has a lot of single-issue voters. Sadly, by the way, there’s a lot of suburban women, a lot of suburban women that are like, ‘Listen, abortion is it. If I can’t have an abortion in this country whenever I want, I will vote for anybody else.’”
“It’s a little crazy, by the way, but ― especially for women that are like past 50. I’m thinking to myself, ‘I don’t think that’s an issue for you.'"

Moreno's remarks quickly caught Brown's attention and he shared the footage on X, formerly Twitter, with the caption:

Bernie Moreno thinks it’s "crazy" that women want to make their own healthcare decisions.

Moreno's comments quickly caught Haley's attention and she immediately criticized him with a straightforward question:

"Are you trying to lose the election? Asking for a friend. #Tonedeaf #DonLemonVibes"

In a Pew Research survey conducted earlier this month, about two-thirds of voters supporting Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, cited abortion rights as “very important” to their vote. In contrast, just over one-third of those backing former President Donald Trump—whom Haley supports—indicated the same.

And many pointed out to Haley that Moreno's statements are very much reflective of what the GOP thinks about reproductive freedoms—as well as the part she's played herself.



Democrats have recognized abortion rights as a strategic advantage, highlighting Trump's boastful claims about appointing three Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn the constitutional right to abortion established by Roe v. Wade.

While the economy remains the top concern for voters, an increasing number of voters in swing states now consider abortion a critical factor in their decision this fall, as revealed by New York Times/Siena College polls conducted last month.

This marks a rise since May, when President Joe Biden was still the Democratic presidential presumptive nominee. By a significant margin, voters express more trust in Harris than Trump regarding abortion.

Harris holds a 20-point advantage over Trump on this issue, which is twice the lead Biden had during his time as the party’s nominee.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.

Fox News' chief political analyst Brit Hume came to the defense of Fox national security reporter Jennifer Griffin after their former colleague, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, criticized Griffin as the reporter "who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says” in a Pentagon news conference.

Hegseth, a former Fox News anchor, had criticized media outlets—including his former network—for what he described as unpatriotic reporting. Hegseth took particular aim at early intelligence assessments suggesting that President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran may not have significantly crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.
