President Biden pounced on Trump’s remarks Monday and his campaign posted an ad that showcases dangerous health impacts experienced by some women. “Let’s be clear: Trump and his allies won’t stop until abortion is banned nationwide,” Biden campaign manager Julie Chávez Rodriguez said in a statement. The Hill: The former president’s federal abortion dodge draws fire from all sides. Trump, known for saying the quiet parts about politics out loud, crafted an announcement that appeared to endorse the preferences of all states — not just those that enacted abortion bans. He emphasized that the debate since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade cost Republican candidates and could hurt his party’s chances this year. Trump repeated that he favors exceptions in cases of rape, incest or a pregnant woman’s health, a position generally favored by majorities of Americans.
