If these comments feel completely untethered from her husband’s campaign, well…maybe that’s the point? The Trump–Vance ticket continues to scramble its abortion position so much that swing voters may not be able to keep up.

Donald Trump has made it abundantly clear: If he wins in November, he will ban abortion nationwide, punish women, and restrict women’s access to reproductive health care.”
