With the Republican National Convention a week away, Vance appears to be reshaping his comments to align with the party's strategy vs. his prior remarks on abortion.
“On the question of the abortion pill,” Vance began, “the Supreme Court made a decision in saying that the American people should have access to that medication, Donald Trump has supported that opinion, I support that opinion.” He was referring to the court’s recent rejection of an attempt to limit access to mifepristone—which is safer than both penicillin and Viagra.
“Most importantly, Kristen, we’re just trying to work to elect Donald Trump. Whoever the vice president is, he’s got a lot of good people he could choose from.” Previously, Vance has been vehement in his anti-abortion stances. In 2021, after the Texas legislature passed a near-total abortion ban, Vance heralded the move.
