‘Manipulative wife’: Christian activist demands boycott targeting Melania Trump

Declaring Melania Trump “betrayed her Catholic faith" and calling on her to repent, a Christian activist running as a third-party candidate for president urged his followers to boycott the former first lady's upcoming book.

This declaration came after the former first lady stunned the political world when she broke with her husband former President Donald Trump on a key campaign issue: abortion rights.

“Boycott her useless book, and call on her to repent,” Constitution Party presidential nominee Randall Terry wrote in a social media post on X that was followed up Friday by a statement. “It causes one to wonder if Trump‘s waffling on child killing was instigated by a beautiful and manipulative wife.”

The comments from Terry, a longtime leader of the anti-abortion movement, came after Melania Trump outraged pro-life supporters and voiced support for abortion rights in a book promo and in excerpts released this week.

“It is imperative to guarantee that women have autonomy in deciding their preference of having children, based on their own convictions, free from any intervention or pressure from the government,” she wrote in book "Melania" set to be published Oct. 8.

Notably, as president, her husband's three hand-picked Supreme Court justice appointees voted to overturn Roe v. Wade.

“Trump is clearly using Melania’s book to pander to pro-choice voters,” said North Carolina attorney Paige Abernathy in a reply to Terry’s social media post.

“He can’t be trusted to protect pro-life values — or any conservative values. As a Christian and conservative, I cannot bring myself to vote for him.”

Terry's Constitution Party vice presidential running mate, pro-life activist and pastor Stephen Broden, had even harsher words for the former president.

"President Trump needs to get his heart and his family in order," according to his statement Friday. "Melania's revelation is stunning, and cannot go unchecked."
