Former President Donald Trump helped correct a 50-year-old grievous wrong when he appointed three Supreme Court justices who provided the margin to strike down Roe v. Wade, an indefensible ruling that had taken abortion mostly out of the democratic sphere.

“I think what he did is a terrible thing and a terrible mistake,” Trump said of Florida’s law signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis that bans abortions after six weeks of gestation, approximately when the nascent baby has a detectable heartbeat. The law has exceptions for rape, incest, and cases to save the mother's life.Then, Trump rejected the first part of the post-Roe pro-life policy framework: state-level restrictions on first-trimester abortions.
An overwhelming majority of abortions occur before the baby reaches 15 weeks of development, so a federal 15-week ban should be understood as a basic floor. Most people believe abortion should be generally illegal after 15 weeks. Trump rambled on and on, dodging questions, so we have to infer what his position is, but this much is clear: He opposes the pro-life laws states are passing, won’t commit to supporting a federal pro-life law, and won’t even commit to supporting a 15-week limit at the state or federal level.
