So the idea that a Republican president could ban all abortions is not being honest with the American people

Implying that she'd ban it if she had 60 votes is not terribly honest either.

I take second place to no one on defending life. Yet I oppose a national ban for the same reason as Roe v Wade was unconstitutional: the national government doesn’t have jurisdiction over this issue; it is an issue under states’ police powers. Some here would disagree, but I hold that, if we are ever to return to constitutional adherence, on the way we have to adhere to the constitution

Also, here we see the old GOP trope that you have to control the presidency, both houses with 60 in the Senate “to get anything done.” Bull crap. Admittedly Biden does much of his damage by unconstitutional Exec orders, but what they did by statute, did they have 60 votes?
