Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said on Friday he would vote against an amendment in his home state of Florida that would enshrine abortion rights in the state’s constitution and overturn a current six-week abortion ban.
Trump made the comments to Fox News, a day after he caused confusion when he seemed to suggest in an interview with NBC News that he would vote in favor of the amendment.
The amendment is strongly opposed by the anti-abortion groups that have backed his campaign in the Nov. 5 election against Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris.
“I think six weeks, you need more time than six weeks,” Trump said, adding he also believed the proposed amendment was too permissive.
“So I’ll be voting no for that reason,” said Trump, who has also indicated the matter should be decided by individual states.
Any woman voting Republican is a traitor to her sex. These people do not give a shit about you or your health.
It depends on the Republican, and Democrat for that matter: a few Republicans are still pro-choice, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the odd Democrat might be anti-choice.
Do what some of the rich do and check out who in each office is running. Don’t vote for Trump. If your state is near-solid red or blue, such as California or Utah, you might as well vote 3rd party if thon is closer to your heart. Check out who’s running for governor, in your House district, Senate (if one is running), mayor, right down to dog catcher. When you’re in the voting booth, you should recognize every name of every candidate: after all, you might have had 2 years to study this.
