Despite President Joe Biden positioning himself as a centrist on abortion policy throughout the 2020 election, he has repeatedly embraced the most extreme Democratic Party line throughout his presidency. He has not just supported the Women’s Health Protection Act, which would legalize abortion nationwide up until the point of a baby’s birth, but he also reversed his previous support for the Hyde Amendment, which once banned taxpayer dollars from paying for abortions. By contrast, former President Donald Trump proudly has taken the centrist mantle on abortion policy and, thus, the winning electoral message from his 2024 opponent.

In a new statement released on Truth Social, the former president pledged support for the pro-life federalism allowed only by the Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, which returned the question of abortion regulation to the states.
