Yesterday he had the comment that he ‘could’ support states having stronger restictions on abortion….
That WAS yesterday….
He’s backtracked on the strong limits….
Playing off that abortion (by self medication) should have beeen contraception and he WAS NOT for cutting off access to Contraception/Birth Control…
Probably a good things since referendums of Abortion Rights HAVE BEEN winner across the coun try even in Red states….
Former President Trump on Tuesday walked back his remarks from an interview with a local Pittsburgh TV station, when he said that he is “looking at” restrictions on contraception and suggested that he will be releasing a policy “very shortly.”
Why it matters: Americans across the political spectrum overwhelmingly support access to contraception.
Driving the news: Trump, who has repeatedly said that abortion should be left to the states, told KDKA-TV that he will be releasing a policy on contraceptives “within a week or so.”
- “Things really do have a lot to do with the states and some states are going to have different policies than others,” Trump said, when asked if he supports some restrictions.
- In a post on his Truth Social account later on Tuesday, Trump wrote that he would “never advocate imposing restrictions on birth control.”….

The other side: The Biden campaign, which has made protecting access to reproductive rights central to its platform, seized on Trump’s remarks.
- “Women across the country are already suffering from Donald Trump’s post-Roe nightmare, and if [Trump] wins a second term, it’s clear he wants to go even further by restricting access to birth control and emergency contraceptives,” Biden-Harris spokesperson Sarafina Chitika said in a statement.
