Former President Donald Trump to Address Supporters in Dubuque, Iowa
Former President Donald Trump is set to deliver a highly anticipated speech in Dubuque, Iowa, on Wednesday. This comes amidst a wave of controversy surrounding his recent comment on abortion.
Trump’s statement regarding Governor Ron DeSantis’s decision to sign a six-week ban on abortion has raised eyebrows. In what appears to be a departure from his traditionally anti-abortion stance, Trump referred to the ban as a “terrible thing and a terrible mistake.”
Furthermore, Trump has refrained from expressing his support for a federal 15-week ban on abortion, a position that has garnered endorsement from several challengers, including Senator Tim Scott.
Unsurprisingly, Trump’s comment has drawn criticism from staunch anti-abortion advocates, such as Governor Kim Reynolds. Reynolds firmly believes that protecting innocent life should never be considered a “terrible thing.”
According to the Des Moines Register, nearly 80% of likely Republican caucusgoers identify as anti-abortion, highlighting the significance of this issue within the party.
