Stephen Farnsworth, a Political Scientist from the University of Mary Washington, said the former president “is in a no-win situation on abortion.”
“That is why he doesn’t have a good response to the obvious question on his views regarding one of America’s most enduring policy debates,” Farnsworth said, “If he vows to sign a national abortion ban he angers those swing voters, and if he says he won’t, he angers the pro-life voters who might already have their doubts about Trump’s commitment, given his back-and-forth statements on the question.”
