Tomi Lahren epitomizes everything wrong with the present day Republican party. Though she had rebuked Trump at one point during his campaign for his superficiality, she is more like him than she'd like to believe, in that she's more obnoxious loud mouth than genuine Conservative. And this was evinced by her going on The View and stating she was pro-choice, because she's a "Constitutional," which I assume means Constitutionalist/Conservative. Except you're not if you support infanticide.
The problem for Tomi is that she's explicitly renounced the inalienable right to life proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are [...] endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."Which is reaffirmed and codified in the U.S. Constitution.
"We the People of the United States, in Order to [...] secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."Any "Constitutionalist" would understand the foundational, Constitutional precept that our rights are derived from God, and meant not merely for personal enjoyment exclusively, but a blessing held in trust to be conveyed intact to our progeny.
"Being influenced from a regard to liberty [...] to transmit to our posterity those blessings of freedom which our ancestors have handed down to us; and to contribute to the support of the common liberties of America." - Association of the Sons of Liberty in New York, December 15, 1773.
"I charge (my sons) on a father's blessing never to let the motives of private interest or ambition induce them to betray, nor the terrors of poverty and disgrace, or the fear of danger or of death, deter them from asserting the liberty of their country and endeavoring to transmit to their posterity those sacred rights to which themselves were born." - Last will and testament of George Mason, drafted the first constitution of Virginia from which Jefferson borrowed wording for Declaration of Independence, delegate to the Constitutional Convention (which he refused to sign because it did not sufficiently protect states rights), and largely responsible for the addition of the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution, 1773.
"It (liberty) is a sacred deposit bestowed by the great Parent of the universe on our ancestors, entrusted by their venerable hands to our care, to be preserved and transmitted by us to posterity pure and uncontaminated." - Brutus, To the Printer of the New York Gazetteer, May 12, 1774.
"Resolved, That this town will heartily join with the Province of the Massachusetts Bay and the other Colonies, in such measures as shall be generally agreed on by the Colonies, for the protecting and securing their invaluable natural rights and privileges, and transmitting the same to the latest posterity." - Town meeting held at Providence, Rhode Island, May 17th, 1774.
"And wherefore is the virtuous struggle yet kept alive against the tyranny of the British Parliament? For no other ends surely than to retain our freedom and transmit it unimpaired to posterity." - Notice published and distributed in handbills in New York, May 19, 1774.

"Think of your posterity, and transmit to them the fair inheritance of liberty, handed down from your glorious progenitors." - To the inhabitants of the Province of South Carolina, about to assemble on the 6th of July, Charlestown, July 4, 1774.
"Honour, justice, and humanity, call upon us to hold, and to transmit to our posterity, that liberty which we received from our ancestors. It is not our duty to leave wealth to our children: But it is our duty to leave liberty to them. No infamy, iniquity, or cruelty, can exceed our own, if we, born and educated in a country of freedom, entitled to its blessings, and knowing their value, pusillanimously deserting the post assigned us by Divine Providence, surrender succeeding generations to a condition of wretchedness, from which no human efforts, in all probability, will be sufficient to extricate them; the experience of all states mournfully demonstrating to us, that when arbitrary power has been established over them, even the wisest and bravest Nations, that ever flourished, have in a few years, degenerated into abject and wretched vassals." - Instructions From the Committee to the Representatives (of Pennsylvania) in Assembly met, July 1774.
"It it is our fixed, determined, and unalterable resolution [...] to maintain, defend, and preserve our before mentioned rights and liberties, and that we will transmit them entire and inviolate to our posterity." - Meeting of the Convention of the Representatives of the Freemen of the Government of the Counties of New-Castle, Kent, and Sussex, upon Delaware, on the 2nd day of August, 1774.
"Resolved, That liberty is the spirit of the British Constitution, and that it is the duty, and will be the endeavor of us as British Americans, to transmit this [...] to our posterity in a state, if possible, better than we found it; and that to suffer it to undergo a change which may impair that invaluable blessing, would be to disgrace those ancestors, who, at the expense of their blood, purchased those privileges which their degenerate posterity are too weak or too wicked to maintain inviolate. - Journal of the Proceedings of the first Provincial Convention of North Carolina, held at Newbern, on the twenty-fourth day of August, 1774.
"The just and sacred rights of our native lands, which were not the gift of Kings, but were purchased solely with the toil, the blood and treasure of our worthy and revered ancestors; and which we look upon ourselves as under the most sacred and inviolable obligations, to maintain, and to transmit, whole and entire, to our posterity." - County of Suffolk, Boston, August 30, 1774.
"Our fathers left a fair inheritance to us, purchased by a waste of blood and treasure; this we are resolved to transmit equally fair to our children after us; no danger shall affright, no difficulties intimidate us; and if in support of our rights, we are called to encounter even death, we are yet undaunted, sensible that he can never die too soon, who lays down his life in support of the laws and liberties of his country." - A meeting of the Committees from every town and district, in the County of Middlesex, and Province of Massachusetts Bay, held at Concord, in the said county, on the 30th and 31st of August, 1774.
"Purchased by the toil and treasure, or acquired by the blood and valor of those our venerable progenitors; to us they bequeathed the dear bought inheritance; to our care and protection they consigned it; and the most sacred obligations are upon us to transmit the glorious purchase, unfettered by power, unclogged with shackles, to our innocent and beloved offspring." - A Meeting of the Delegates of every Town and District of the County of Suffolk (Massachusetts), on Tuesday, the 6th of September, 1774.
"This Colony was settled by English subjects; by a people from England herself; a people who brought over with them, who planted in this Colony, and who transmitted to posterity the invaluable rights of Englishmen—rights which no time, no contract, no climate can diminish." - Charge of the Honorable William Henry Drayton, Esquire, delivered to the several Grand Juries and by them ordered to he published, for the Districts of Camden and Cheraws, in South Carolina, on the fifth and fifteenth days of November, 1774.
"Threatened with the destruction of our ancient Laws and Liberty, and the loss of all that is dear to British subjects and freemen, justly alarmed with the prospect of impending ruin,—firmly determined at the hazard of our lives, to transmit to our children and posterity those sacred rights to which ourselves were born." - Extracts from the Proceedings of the Committee of Fairfax County (Virginia), on the 17th of January, 1775.
"Supported by the pleasing hope of enjoying those rights and liberties which had been granted to Virginians, and were denied us in our native country, and of transmitting them inviolate to our posterity." - A meeting of the Freeholders of Fincastle County, in Virginia, held on the 20th day of January, 1775.
"Shall we, knowing the value of freedom, and nursed in the arms of Liberty, make a base and ignominious surrender of our rights, thereby consigning succeeding generations to a condition of wretchedness, from which, perhaps, all human efforts will be insufficient to extricate them? Duty to ourselves, and regard for our country, should induce us to defend our liberties, and to transmit the fair inheritance unimpaired to posterity." - Province of New Hampshire, At the Convention of Deputies, appointed by the several Towns in the Province aforesaid, held at Exeter, on the 25th day of January, 1775.
"The free and undisturbed exercise of all those rights and privileges, for the enjoyment of which our pious and virtuous ancestors braved every danger, and transmitted the fair possession down to their children, to be by them handed down entire to the latest posterity." - Massachusetts Provincial Congress, Thursday, February 16th, 1775.
"Honor, justice and humanity forbid us tamely to surrender that freedom which we received from our gallant ancestors, and which our innocent posterity have a right to receive from us." - John Dickinson's Composition Draft, 1775.
"Whereas the honorable Continental Congress have appointed and earnestly recommend 'that the 17th inst. (being tomorrow) be observed by the United Colonies as a day of humiliation, fasting, and prayer, that we may with united hearts confess and bewail our manifold sins and transgressions against God.... that it may please the Lord of hosts, the God of armies [....] that this continent may be speedily restored to the blessings of peace and liberty, and enabled to transmit them inviolate to the latest posterity." - Civil Government of New York, May, 1776.
"While the people are virtuous, they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue, they will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader. How necessary then is it for those who are determined to transmit the blessings of liberty as a fair Inheritance to posterity, to associate on public principles in support of public virtue." - Samuel Adams, to James Warren on February 12, 1779.
"The contest in which the United States are engaged appeals for its support to every motive that can animate an uncorrupted and enlightened people--to the love of country; to the pride of liberty; to an emulation of the glorious founders of their independence [....] to the sacred obligation of transmitting entire to future generations that precious patrimony of national rights and independence which is held in trust by the present from the goodness of divine providence." - President James Madison, Special Session Message, May 25, 1813.
"We owe these blessings under Heaven, to the happy Constitution and Government which were bequeathed to us by our fathers, and which it is our sacred duty to transmit in all their integrity to our children." - President Millard Fillmore, State of the Union Address, December 6, 1851.
"Every man's heart swells within him; every man's port and bearing become somewhat more proud and lofty as he remembers that seventy-five years have rolled away and that the great inheritance of liberty is still his [...] undiminished and unimpaired, his, in all its original glory, his to enjoy, his to protect, and his to transmit to future generations." - Daniel Webster, Secretary or State, July 4th, 1851.

"This Consociation here makes devout acknowledgment to Almighty God for his mercies [...] that he will animate the hearts of all military governors and generals with the true spirit of liberty and humanity [...] and enable us to transmit them with blessings and benedictions to the generations following." - The Congregational Association of Rhode Island, June, 1862.Etc., etc., etc.
That principle remains codified in the U.S Constitution, and still lingers in state constitutions to this day.
"To perpetuate the principles of free government, insure justice to all, preserve peace, promote the interest and happiness of the citizen and of the family, and transmit to posterity the enjoyment of liberty, we the people of Georgia, relying upon the protection and guidance of Almighty God, do ordain and establish this Constitution." - Preamble to the Constitution of Georgia.But hey, Tomi who's ostentatiously abandoned Founding (i.e., actual Constitutional) principle, in favor of a non-existent right fabricated out of thin air by an activist court 184 years after the Constitution was established, is a "Constitutionalist." Such are the frauds and imbeciles that now throng the Socialist GoP and call themselves "Conservatives."
This is becoming more and more common within a Republican party that reveres "progressive" ignoramuses like Lahren and Milo Yiannopoulos, both of which have ostentatiously abandoned their sacred duty to transmit the liberty they received to posterity undiminished (one through infanticide and the other sodomy), for their perceived shared antipathy for Democrats as opposed to correct principles. Again I ask, with apostate Socialist Republicans like this, who the hell needs Democrats? These two are utter proof that the GoP, which ever more defines itself upon being anti-Democrat as opposed to pro-Constitution, is much like the latter now hopelessly lost.
