Trump’s Political Miscalculation on Abortion

In light of the seemingly unpopularity of pro-life legislation, voters in Midwest swing states will be inundated with advertisements highlighting Trump’s role in reversing Roe v. Wade from now until November. The Super PAC American Bridge 21st Century is buying up $25 million in ads which quote Trump saying he is “proudly the person responsible” for Roe’s demise. The accusation that Trump will be responsible for fatal ectopic pregnancies and pregnant underage rape victims is a familiar refrain for Democrats on the 2024 campaign trail.
