In a carefully worded statement today, Trump claims he no longer wants a national abortion ban. He also indicates right now, it's more important to win the election, and that's the real agenda. Via Politico:

Former President Donald Trump on Monday said abortion should be left to the states in the post-Roe era, declining to endorse any national limit on the procedure.

His announcement, shared on Truth Social, is likely to disappoint anti-abortion groups who hoped he would use his bully pulpit to endorse national restrictions on abortion, especially after his campaign floated a 15-week ban earlier this year. Trump instead said that it was “up to the states to do the right thing” on abortion, painting Democrats as “radical” on the issue.

“The states will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both, and whatever they decide must be the law of the land,” Trump said. “Many states will be different. Many will have a different number of weeks, or some will [be] more conservative than others, and that’s what they will be. At the end of the day, this is all about the will of the people.”

Sure, let's leave civil rights up to the state legislators, like they did in Texas. What could go wrong?

He went on to say, “You must also win elections to restore our culture and, in fact, to save our country, which is currently and very sadly a nation in decline."

Oh yeah, that's the real story. In other words, he'll say whatever he has to say to win, and then do what his backers want anyway.

Donald Trump, in order to win elections, also lies about "abortion after birth."

He's a liar.
