Trump says he would veto a federal abortion ban if elected again
Former President Donald Trump said Tuesday he would veto a federal abortion ban if he is elected again.
맥스카지노Everyone knows I would not support a federal abortion ban, under any circumstances, and would, in fact, veto it, because it is up to the states to decide based on the will of their voters (the will of the people!)맥스카지노 Trump wrote in an all-caps post on his Truth Social platform during the CBS vice presidential debate between his running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
맥스카지노Like Ronald Reagan before me, I fully support the three exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother,맥스카지노 Trump continued.
The GOP nominee has repeatedly said he would not sign a federal abortion ban, but during last month맥스카지노s ABC debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, he would not commit to vetoing such a ban and instead argued he 맥스카지노wouldn맥스카지노t have to.맥스카지노
When he was asked during that debate about Vance telling NBC News that the former president would veto such legislation, Trump said he hadn맥스카지노t spoken to Vance about it, saying, 맥스카지노I don맥스카지노t think he was speaking for me.맥스카지노
Abortion has been a key contrast in the 2024 race, with Harris enjoying a clear advantage on the issue. That맥스카지노s partially fueled her lead among female voters nationally and in swing states. Democrats have made abortion rights a prominent part of their messaging this year, pointing to state-level restrictions made possible by Trump-appointed Supreme Court justices voting with the majority to overturn Roe v. Wade in 2022.
Democrats have performed strongly in elections where abortion has taken center stage since that Supreme Court decision, and abortion rights supporters have won a series of statewide ballot measures on the issue, even in deep-red states.
Trump has recently taken to casting himself as a 맥스카지노protector맥스카지노 of women, claiming that American women won맥스카지노t be 맥스카지노thinking about abortion맥스카지노 if he맥스카지노s elected.
