Former President Donald Trump officially announced his position on abortion on Monday, ending months-long speculation about how he would handle the issue should he be elected in November.
In a video posted to Truth Social, Trump said the issue of abortion is about “the will of the people” and should be left up to states to decide. The 45th president touted his role in nominating the Supreme Court justices who ultimately overturned Roe v. Wade in their Dobbs decision — ending 50 years of an invented constitutional right to abortion and sending the issue back to individual states and their elected representatives.

Any mention of abortion brings the AWFLs out in full force. When they hear the mere mention of abortion, there is no discussion, reflexively its: Democrat = good, Republican = bad.

YES, YES, YES. Agree 100%.
51% believe it should be legal under some circumstances, and 34% believe it should be legal under all circumstances.
I know this is a passionate topic on FR, but from a strictly political perspective it is a losing topic to push for all bans on abortion under any circumstances.
It’s like saying that states should make the decision on slavery
Biden again disagrees with the USSC and every state which does NOT allow abortion.
At one time, every state held that abortion was illegal.
President Trump got it right......
<><>The USSC itself ruled
<><>the Constitution doesn’t give rights to the federal govt to intervene in the decision;
<><>that’s already been left to the states.
As much as I’d like a total ban the entire country is simply too far gone morally to ever vote for that . Keeping it a states issue is the best we can do until the entire culture turns around
They did. New York didn’t abolish slavery until 1827. Many people had come to from Free States years earlier.
Using that logic we’d still have slavery.
But I don’t care at the moment.
Until we restore the republic, every other issue is moot.
And that was the law until the 13th amendment was passed specifically prohibiting slavery.
There is all manner of discussion about what constitutes a "natural born citizen" which is defined at the federal level, as it should. That we can't define "human being" or "human person" at the federal level as well seems like a gross injustice.
The 13th amendment has entered the conversation.
A wise position. And the constitutional one.
No. It’s like state laws applying to marriage, divorce.
Except marriages and divorces are recognized in every state.
