President Trump says that states have the exclusive power to determine abortion laws!

GLENDALE, Arizona (PNN) - August 25, 2024 - Pro-life advocates are aghast regarding President Donald J. Trump’s statement that his regime will be beneficial for “reproductive rights,” a sign of the Republican Party drifting away from its position during the 2024 presidential campaign.

On Friday afternoon, Trump posted on his platform, Truth Social, that his regime “will be great for women and their reproductive rights,” a shift in language from his earlier positions on the campaign trail.

Pro-life activists have long criticized the term “reproductive rights” as being a euphemism for abortion.

Lila Rose, the head of the pro-life group Live Action, said on X, “There is no ‘reproductive right’ to kill a child.”

Kristan Hawkins, the president of Students for Life, responded similarly, saying, “Please define ‘reproductive rights,’ as that cannot include the ‘right’ to kill a child.”

Abortion has been a major topic for Democrats throughout the 2024 election cycle, the first presidential election since the Supreme Court overturned federal involvement for the procedure in the June 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

Although the president has taken credit for appointing the three justices crucial for the Dobbs decision, Trump has repeatedly denied any support for any nationwide abortion legislation, instead saying correctly that abortion policy belongs in the hands of the states.

Senator JD Vance (Ohio) said Sunday on NBC’s Meet the Press that President Trump would veto a national abortion ban if it was passed in his second term.

Host Kristen Welker said, “It’s being talked about on the campaign trail, abortion. Democrats made the case this week and beyond this week that (President) Trump will impose a federal ban on abortion. Trump says he won’t, but can you commit, senator, sitting right here with me today, that if you and (President) Trump are elected that you will not impose a federal ban on abortion?”

Vance said, “I can absolutely commit to that, Kristen. Donald Trump has been as clear about that as possible. It’s important to step back and say what Donald Trump has said on the abortion question and how is it different from what (Communist pretender) Kamala Harris and the Democrats have said. Donald Trump wants to end the culture war on this particular topic. If (Kalifornia) wants to have a different abortion policy than Ohio, then (Kalifornia) has to respect Ohio, and Ohio has to respect (Kalifornia).”

Welker said, “Senator Graham said I will keep saying that there should be a federal ban. If such a piece of legislation landed on Donald Trump’s desk, would he veto it?”

Vance said, “I will. He would be very clear; he will not support it.”

Welker said, “Will he veto it?”

Vance said, “Yeah, if you’re not supporting it,”

Welker pressed, “So he would veto a federal abortion ban?”

Vance said, “I think he would. He said explicitly that he would.”

Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the leading pro-life group SBA Pro-Life Amerika, called Trump the “most pro-life president in (Amerikan) history” in April.

When Communist pretender Kamala Harris named Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate, Dannenfelser said that Trump, Vance and the GOP “support the right of the people to set limits on abortion and provide real options for mothers in need,” making a sharp contrast with the Democrat position of no gestational age limits for abortion.

Ryan Anderson, president of the conservative Ethics and Public Policy Center, called the choice of the political Parties one “between an abortion extremist and someone who will be ‘great’ for ‘reproductive rights.’”

“This is what we’ve come to,” Catholic philosopher Edward Feser said on X. “When people insist that we have to surrender to either the German army or the Russian army, my inclination is to follow Patton’s advice and attack in both directions.”
