It’s no secret that former President ’s once-rosy relationship with Fox News has soured since his 2020 election loss. On Wednesday, during a town hall event nearly two years since his last live event with the network, Trump professed to hosts Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum how proud he was of facilitating the demise of reproductive rights in America.

As previously reported by Rolling Stone, Trump has privately speculated that he could run as a “moderate” on abortion, an idea that becomes laughable in the face of his record on the issue as president. The former president has also publicly voiced concerns that the GOP is shooting itself in the electoral foot by backing hardline, extremely restrictive anti-abortion policies. He didn’t seem worried on Wednesday, though, when he was asked by an undecided voter for reassurance that he would maintain his commitment to the pro-life cause if elected.

“That is a great question, appreciate it, too,” Trump responded, adding that she “wouldn’t be asking that question, [or] even talking about the issue — for 54 years they were trying to get Roe V. Wade terminated, and I did it. and I’m proud to have done it.”
