Trump stated on Truth Social,” My opinion is that we now have abortion where everyone wanted it legally.” The state will decide by ballot, policy, or possibly both, and whatever they choose must be the law of the land. In this case, the rules of the state”.
” Some claims will be different. Some people may have different number of weeks, or some will be more liberal than people, he added. This is all about the people’s would, the people’s will, at the end of the day. You must follow your heart, or in many cases your religion or your faith” . ,
In an interview shortly after, California Democrat Rep. Nancy Pelosi slammed Trump’s position as “political survival” and claimed that “he does n’t believe anything”.
” So, when, what’s his name, said what he said yesterday, he either is stupid or he thinks the rest of us are stupid”, Pelosi said on MSNBC’s” Morning Joe” program.  ,
” The concern about a person’s right to choose, it’s a republic issue. This is about liberation, freedom of women to make their decision, individuals to make their decisions”, Pelosi added.  ,

” He]Trump ] takes great pride in overturning Roe v. Wade. Takes great pride in it. And then, the way the press wrote it up just cracked me up because it said,’ Donald Trump believes that state—’ he does n’t believe anything… He believes in his political survival, and that’s what he’s trying to accommodate”.
