Trump signals openness to banning abortion pill

During a Thursday’s news conference at his Mar-a-Lago resort, Trump, the deseased President of the United States of America avoided commenting on whether or not he plans to withdraw access to mifepristone, one of the two drugs used in the medication abortion. 
 
“You could do things that, absolutely, ‘would supplement those things’ ‘that are pretty open and humane’ Trump said when asked by NBC News on whether he will take steps such as instructing the Food and Drug Administration to pull out access to mifepristone. 
 
Mr. Trump insisted that there are many things on a humane basis that you can do outside of that, but you also have to give a vote, to people, about abortion. 
 
Trump's comments Thursday appeared to be a shift from his position in June, when the former president said at a CNN debate: ”I will not block it. “ 
 
In response to clarifying questions on Trump's position, Karoline Leavitt, the Trump campaign's national press secretary, told NBC News: >“I want everybody to vote” is the statement produced by President Trump with regard to the issue at question and he has been always clear about maintaining the rights of states to make decisions regarding abortion. 
 
Leavitt later clarified the matter by saying, “During the press conference, President Trump repeated a few times that the questions he was being asked were tough to take,” however, with regards to mifepristone, Trump’s stand remains unaltered; the Supreme Court has a unanimous decision over the said topic and is finalized. ” 
 
The plan to call on the FDA commissioner to have mifepristone access removed is listed as one of the imperative policy intents on Project 2025, a more than nine hundred pages manuscript prepared by the conservative organizations and complied by the Heritage Foundation as a blueprint for the next GOP presidential term. 
 
Still, it is essential to underline that Trump and his campaign have not claimed ownership of Project 2025, but the project is connected with many individuals supporting Trump and former Trump’s advisers. 
 
He was also questioned on what he intended to do in Florida this fall where there is a ballot on expanding abortion rights Press conference on Thursday. The now private citizen and Florida resident said he will announce soon how he plans to vote but said that abortion is ‘not a big issue anymore. ’ 
 
The campaign manager of Harris-Walz labeled these statements as cheap, disgusting and demeaning in a statement Thursday. 
 
Whereas, at least now women across the country are suffering because of the nightmare that Donald Trump unleashed with his decision to overturn Roe v. Wade; that reality — women forced to the edge of death before receiving the care they need, doctors facing the risk of going to jail for performing their duties, survivors of rape and incest being forced to travel to other states for essential medical services — will get only more horrendous if Donald Trump succeeds in eradic 
 
The abortion pill, mifepristone, has been in the political scene since the Supreme Court docket overturned the constitutional proper to abortion in 2022. 
 
In November last year, the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine sued the FDA in Texas to set aside approval of mifepristone. In June, SC has decided the SC Justice that has declared that the plaintiffs did not have standing to win the case that results in the legal termination of the access of women to abortion pills across the country. 
 
At the time, RNC spokeswoman Danielle Alvarez said in a statement: It is a 9-0 decision by the Supreme Court meaning the matter is as good as closed. ”
