I'm not disparaging Republicans, simply commenting on their campaign strategy. Democrats traditionally rely on providing facts and logic to garner votes while Republicans rely on catchy sound bytes. Both use questionable slogans to promote their platforms but the Republicans seem better at it.
And I'm an Independent, too.

Facts and logic? From a Democrat?
They do everything by emotion and the only facts they use are made up or obfuscation. Both parties are a disgrace but Republicans are slightly more trustworthy. "Sadly"

"trust-worthy". Best con-word, as in "Trust me, I am doing this for your benefit." Even a trailer preacher used this.

What will that do to the economy? Crime and illegitimate babies are the fastest growing cottage industries in my state.

Heh...since 78% of Democrats think the country is going in the wrong direction...
Whom are you speaking for?
Ahem...there is a direct correlation between our current crime waves and Democrats' flaccid stance on crime...and simply not punishing criminals.
Criminals are mal adjusted...not stupid (mostly).
Not the current Democrat Party...oh...they are stupid...beyond belief.
And I'm an Independent...never voted for Trump.

Me either, but I did vote against Hillary and Sleepy Joe and his ho.

In a political ad for the primaries, a local candidate promised, "to make crime illegal" 
Could it be in Frisco? Theft of less than $950 is not a punishable crime there.

And the Republicans want more "illegitimate babies" who will cause more crime.

I have no dog in the fight politically...other than I'd like the USA to do well.
Campaign aside...which let's face it...everybody lies...always have.
The Democrat Party is on life support.
They have adopted a mixture of progressivism (communism) and woke social theory...whatever that is...they don't even know.
The Democrats have to do a serious house cleaning...but...I don't think they will.
The only destiny is the one we make....and this destiny in the making...is a nightmare.

There's another way to reduce the flow of illegitimate babies beside killing them in the womb. We could stop allowing living off welfare being a family business that thrives for generation after generation. Perhaps knowing that a baby you can't kill and don't want, and cant get a pay raise for tolerating, will cause the breeders to learn to practice birth control. The sperm donors are always raring to go, so you can't count on them exercising good judgement.

Your statement amounts to a Straw man argument, my comment has nothing to do with any beliefs, just pointing out the fact.

That's almost as funny as a certain Texas republican stating "“Rape is a crime, and Texas will work tirelessly to make sure that we eliminate all rapists from the streets of Texas by aggressively going out and arresting them and prosecuting them and getting them off the streets.”
No dumber than Greg Abbot saying he would wipe out rape in Texas. If he knows how and hasn't done it he is derelict. If he doesn't know how, he's a blow hard.

It's not a straw man. The two are very much related. Are you aware that the crime rate among children of single parent families have a crime rate considerably higher than undocumented aliens? If you are worried about damage to "our way of life" you shouldn't want to force more unwanted children on the country.

Ahem...progressivism...is...communism.
It's just a label change...communism is a bit worn out...millions dead and all that...
So...new name...for the way backward...I mean forward.
To tribalism...I mean social justice.
And the progressive termites aren't even in hiding anymore in the Democrat Party...on full display now...setting policy.
You see the result in two short years.
