Trump was exactly right when he said that if Roe v. Wade was overturned, the abortion issue would subsequently be handled at the state level, which is as it should be.
The pro-life argument is that abortion is murder. Laws regarding murder, including its definition, degree and penalties, have always varied from state to state.
The most that the federal government can rightly do is to see Roe v. Wade overturned, stop funding abortion with taxpayer money, and stop forcing citizens to pay for it or participate in providing it.
But there is no justification for some type of federal law that seeks to entirely outlaw abortion in the U.S. That is a matter for the individual states to decide.
Trump can do more than appoint pro-life justices.
He can enforce the Hyde amendment that the rats ignore.
