Trump Won’t Commit to Protecting Abortion Pills

"Donald Trump gave a noncommittal answer when asked about his plans for abortion pills. The president-elect, in an interview with Meet the Press that aired Sunday, was asked by moderator Kristen Welker if he would restrict access to abortion medications. At first he said he “probably” would not, before leaving himself room to change his mind. “More than half of abortions in this country are medication abortions. Will you restrict the availability of abortion pills when you’re in office?” Welker asked Trump. “I’ll probably stay with exactly what I’ve been saying for the last two years,” Trump said. “And the answer is no.” But when Welker asked if Trump would “commit to that,” he wavered. “Well, I commit. I mean… things change. I think they change. I hate to go on shows like Joe Biden, ‘I’m not going to give my son a pardon. I will not under any circumstances give him a pardon.’ I watched this and I always knew he was going to give him a pardon. And so, I don’t like putting myself in a position like that. So things do change. But I don’t think it’s going to change at all.” Trump has often taken credit for the overturning of Roe v. Wade as well as state abortion bans that have gone into place since the Dobbs ruling that reversed federal abortion protections. “I was able to kill Roe v. Wade,” he wrote on Truth Social in 2023. “Without me there would be no 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 15 weeks, or whatever is finally agreed to,” he added. “Without me the pro Life movement would have just kept losing. Thank you President TRUMP!!!” Trump was responsible for shifting the Supreme Court significantly to the right by appointing three conservative justices — Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett — during his first term in the White House."
