Trump Shifts Stance on Abortion Policy

Former President Donald Trump has shifted his stance on abortion, stating that the issue should be decided by individual states and that he would not sign a national abortion ban if re-elected. This marks a departure from his previous efforts to overturn Roe v Wade. He criticized an Arizona court ruling that upheld a near-total abortion ban, and his comments have disappointed some anti-abortion activists. He also expressed his belief that the issue of abortion favours Democrats in the midterm elections, causing many Republicans to lose their seats.
