Trump Would Veto A National Abortion Ban: Vance
Trump Would Veto A National Abortion Ban: Vance
Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times,
Presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump would, if elected, veto a national abortion ban, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) said on Aug. 25.
“If you’re not supporting it as the president of the United States, you fundamentally have to veto it,” Vance, Trump’s running mate, said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
The president can sign or veto a piece of legislation that reaches his desk after being approved by both chambers of Congress.
Members can override a veto. That requires two-thirds of the House of Representatives and two-thirds of the Senate.
The Republican vice presidential nominee said a Trump–Vance administration would not impose a national ban on abortion.
“I can absolutely commit that,” he said.
“Donald Trump I think has staked his position and made it very explicit,” Vance added later.
“He wants this to be a state decision, states are going to make this determination themselves.”
Trump has not said explicitly that he would veto abortion ban legislation, but he has said that abortion restrictions should be left up to states.
“Many people have asked me what my position is on abortion and abortion rights,” the former president said in a video on social media earlier this year.
“My view is now that we have abortion where everybody wanted it from a legal standpoint, the states will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both.”
Trump supported the U.S. Supreme Court in overturning its own precedent established in Roe v. Wade, which concluded that access to abortion was a constitutional right. The justices, including three appointed by Trump, ruled in 2022 that this conclusion was erroneous.
The ruling also reversed a 1992 Supreme Court decision that had prevented states from imposing significant restrictions on abortion before a fetus could survive outside the womb.
The ruling was “only made possible because I delivered everything as promised, including nominating and getting three highly respected and strong Constitutionalists confirmed to the United States Supreme Court,” Trump wrote on his platform, Truth Social, at the time. “It was my great honor to do so!”
Vance said on NBC that Trump “wants to end this culture war over this particular topic” and that “Trump’s view is that we want the individual states, and their individual cultures, and their unique political sensibilities to make these decisions because we don’t want to have a nonstop federal conflict over this issue.”
Instead, the federal government “ought to be focused on getting food prices down, getting housing prices down,” Vance said.
Vice President Kamala Harris, who is running against Trump, has told voters that Trump supports a federal ban on abortion.
“Trump hand-picked three members of the Supreme Court because he intended for them to overturn Roe v Wade—as he intended, they did,” she wrote on the social media platform X recently.
“If he is re-elected, we know he will sign a national abortion ban. As president, I will restore reproductive freedom.”
Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, said on X, “God have mercy on this nation if this is now the position of what was the Pro-Life Party.”
Trump, meanwhile, took to social media on Aug. 23 to say that his second term “will be great for women and their reproductive rights.”
He told reporters hours later, at an event in Las Vegas, that he is “very strong on women’s reproductive rights,” including access to in vitro fertilization.

Tropical Storm Hone Forecast Discussion
Issued at 500 AM HST Mon Aug 26 2024
000 WTPA41 PHFO 261445 TCDCP1 Tropical Storm Hone Discussion Number 17 NWS Central Pacific Hurricane Center Honolulu HI CP012024 500 AM HST Mon Aug 26 2024 Moderate westerly shear is continuing to take a toll on Hone. The low level circulation appears to be partly exposed and the center is likely near the western edge of an earlier burst of convection. PHFO and JTWC subjective intensities were 3.5, which agrees well with UW-CIMSS SATCON and AiDT. The initial intensity was lowered to 55 kt with this advisory. Hone continues to move just north of due west, 280/11, to the south of deep layer ridging. This general motion should persist for the next several days and the track guidance is still relatively tightly clustered. The current forecast is very similar to the previous forecast track. Although Hone will be moving over warmer sea surface temperatures, increasingly strong shear through the forecast period will continue to gradually weaken the tropical cyclone. Later in the forecast period, the low level trade wind flow will continue to take the shallow circulation of Hone on a westward journey. Most of the guidance shows a slightly slower forward speed prior to expected dissipation. The intensity forecast continues to be a blend of the statistical and dynamical guidance, and very similar to the previous forecast package. Hone should become a remnant low in about 4 days prior to dissipation as it approaches the International Date Line.
