Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker called on former President Donald Trump's running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio, to "defend the unborn" after Trump on Friday posted to Truth Social that his "Administration will be great for women and their reproductive rights."
"No party or candidate is perfect," Butker wrote on X on Friday evening. "I implore my fellow Catholic @JDVance to help bring the Republican Party back in line with the foundational platform that all life is valuable and there can be no compromise when it comes to defending the unborn."
The Chiefs kicker then followed up his statement with a quote from Father Chad Ripperger: "Our obligation is to vote for the lesser of two evils because voting for a lesser evil preserves the good that could be potentially lost."
