Donald Trump still says he’s proud that the Supreme Court justices he nominated overturned Roe v. Wade.
FILE - Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump speaks at a Get Out The Vote rally in Conway, S.C., Feb. 10, 2024. Trump still says he's proud that the Supreme Court justices he nominated overturned Roe v. Wade. Yet he avoided questions about whether he would support a national abortion ban should he return to the White House.
But Trump wants to win in 2024. And in his statement, he made clear that he's trying to make the best of a bad political situation for him and his party.Democrats would have had more ammunition this November if Trump had publicly embraced a national abortion plan on Monday. But Biden's party still has plenty to work with.Within hours, the Biden campaign announced plans to release a new advertisement seizing on Trump’s position.
“We are deeply disappointed in President Trump’s position," said Marjorie Dannenfelser, the president of the anti-abortion Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America. Dannenfelser and others have been pushing Trump to embrace a national abortion ban for several months. Trump, of course, has not. And still, Trump cruised to an easy victory in the GOP primary.If his waffling on abortion didn't hurt him with the GOP base in the primary, it's hard to see them turning against him this fall.Trump on Monday talked in more substance than we're used to. But he hardly put the issue to rest.
