One thing that keeps pro-life alive in America is the pro-choice side holds that no extreme is too disgusting or barbaric for abortion. While European countries tend to have restrictions on abortion after the first 10-12 weeks, American abortion activists have insisted that actually, jamming scissors into a live baby's skull is fine, that there's nothing wrong with birthing a live baby and sticking it in a closet to die, that no, it's completely unnecessary for a clinic performing a somewhat risky surgical procedure to have hospital access, and that yes, of course it's okay for an adult stranger to drive a preteen girl to a different state to have an abortion without letting her parents know. On every point, they take the most extreme, absurd stance, and defend it by having hordes of crazy people in stupid-looking hats jump around and shriek on television. When you regularly display the country's most horrible people acting horribly to defend horrible things, it's pretty tough to get people to like you.
