When Roe fell, Republicans quickly realized that rolling back abortion rights is inherently unpopular. Trump shied away from his anti-abortion record on the campaign trail: softening his rhetoric around reproductive rights, waffling on a national abortion ban and peddling his lie that “everyone” wanted Roe repealed.
