How come there are no strict anti-abortion politicians who run....

....on a platform of more funding for welfare, schools, sex education, food stamps and cutting military spending, corporate tax breaks, no bid bullshit contracts all in the interest of funding for social programs, the children and the family?

I would actually take that person (despite disagreeing with their stance on the procedure itself) at their word of being genuinely concerned for life and sincere in their beliefs as opposed to the 100% disingenuous likes of Mike Pence and Kay Ivey.

Yet it seems, they don't exist? Why is that? Explain like I'm five. You think it has something to do with appealing to a base that can't wrap their mind around anything but a boiler plate conservative philosophy to get elected?
