Yeah acting like overturning Roe vs Wade was universally thought of as the right thing to do was a bridge too far even for Trump.

It's only been refuted by literally every election where it's been on the ballot.

And Republican states are busy doing everything they can to toss any and all ballot initiatives that affirm abortion rights. So talking like it's "going back to the people of individual states to decide" is clearly nonsense.

And Republicans are busy trying to find a way to do "fetal personhood", whether through passing a new federal law or just finding some legal case to get their 6 SCOTUS judges to legislate from the bench.

Only fools believed the whole "let the states decide"rhetoric. The goal is and has always been draconian national restrictions on a woman's independence and self determination.

Florida has a referendum of the people of Florida on abortion and recreational Marijuana on Nov 5th. The GOP hates it because both of these will bring democrats out to vote. So they have been busy deleting old voter registrations and they are now 100,000 GOP votes ahead!! Ron DeSantis will be the VP choice because two white men is what their base wants. Watch out... DeSantis could finish Trump's term (2years) after he unfortunately dies of a chicken bone, then get re-elected for 2 more terms on his own...10 years as president..the max allowed until then.
