In April, President Trump made his position on abortion clear in a video posted on Truth Social, saying it was a matter about the “will of the people” and that it should be left to the states to decide.
“My view is that abortion is now available wherever anyone wants it, and from a legal standpoint, each state should decide, either by vote or by legislation or both, and that decision should become the law of the land,” Trump said. Said In his video.
The former president also said in the video that states will have “different” restrictions on abortion, with some states being “more conservative than others.”
Many states have different circumstances, many states have different weeks, and some states are more conservative than others and that will be the reality. Ultimately, this is all a matter of the will of the people. You have to follow your heart, or in many cases, your religion or faith.

In early May, Clinton claimed on social media that if Trump was re-elected, “every” woman in the United States would “live in a state where abortion is banned or restricted.” In an MSNBC interview with former White House press secretary and host Jen Psaki, Newsom said Trump was a “liar” and that he didn’t doubt that he would sign a nationwide abortion ban into law.
