Former Vice President Mike Pence blasted former President Trump on Monday for embracing the position that abortion policy should be determined by states and avoiding taking a stance on whether the federal government should enforce a national ban at a certain cutoff point.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Pence — who was Trump’s running mate in 2016 and 2020 —said Trump’s newly announced position on abortion was a “slap in the face” to opponents of abortion rights who voted for their ticket.
“President Trump’s retreat on the Right to Life is a slap in the face to the millions of pro-life Americans who voted for him in 2016 and 2020,” Pence wrote in his post, before praising the steps their administration took to further the anti-abortion effort.
“By nominating and standing by the confirmation of conservative justices, the Trump-Pence Administration helped send Roe v. Wade to the ash heap of history where it belongs and gave the pro-life movement the opportunity to compassionately support women and unborn children. In the landmark Dobbs decision, the Supreme Court returned the question of abortion to the states and the American people,” Pence wrote.

Sorry, wrong thread.
SCOTUS said the States should determine abortion laws. The Feds need to stay out of it.
Pence needs to pound sand.
Penceatawney Mike has seen his shadow and will be going back into his hole for another six months.
Pence is a slap in the face to Trump supporters
nothing less
What the Uniparty wanted was for Roe v Wade to be a divisive “Forever Wedge Issue” to go along with their “Forever Wars
“Islam vs the West” is a Uniparty scam. Western leaders fund jihadis and flood the West with Muslim immigrants to create as much division as possible..... It’s divide and conquer all the way around.
Trump took this position so he doesn’t really have to take a position. He only wants to win. Pence doesn’t get the winning part. That is Trump’s only objective - not babies.
Exactly.
Like that tool is concerned about conservatives.
I care about what Pence’d says about as much as I care about what ham head Rove has to say.
And to our country.
“ Islam vs the West” is a Uniparty scam”
100%. A+
When the media covers Pence you know it’s a slow news day happy hour starts early.
Pence will find any reason to hate on President Trump. We live in a decadent society now. Lawlessness and pride are taking over. The states are already making their choices of death to the unborn. The Roe v Wade overturn just awakened the dark spirits of the land. The demons of hell have raised their ugly heads. Pence is too blind to see what is really happening to the USA. The extremist position is being played by the left. Pence wants to paint Trump into the corner so he loses all of the independent voters. We are on a dark road of destruction. Wake up 30! You’re just a tool for the D‘rat machine.
He’s talking again? Abortion wouldn’t be up to the states without Trump’s SCOTUS picks. If he makes 2024 all about abortion, it would galvanize the leftards behind an issue, rather than their personal whack-job hatred of Orange Man Great. Don’t give them a casus belus.
This guy would have been against Trump no matter what he said.
What a two faced evil man.
“I know we all have got our doubts about the last election. I want to assure you that I share the concerns of millions of Americans about voting irregularities. I promise you, come this Wednesday, we will have our day in Congress!”Still waiting, Mikey. (And you didn’t say who you meant by “we”.)

I am very happy to hear it, if these reports are true, and Trump is actually abandoning his recent plans to re-implement federal control of abortion, and will now support states making individual decisions, to include complete bans of abortions. This is a very positive change in his position, and very surprising as well. Hopefully it bodes well for the future.
It isn’t to me. I believe in STATES’ purviews on all matters not specifically delineated in the Constitution. Pence is only mouthing off because there are some MAGAs out there who will not agree with his position. Pence needs to STFU and go away.
Traitor pence is an insult to Patriots everywhere.
