Former President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he will vote against Amendment 4, a Florida ballot measure aimed at codifying abortion access, despite previously suggesting he supported repealing the state’s six-week abortion ban. Trump stated that the six-week limit is too short, claiming more time is needed for women, but he ultimately opposes the amendment due to its perceived radical nature, which he argues allows for extreme late-term abortions.
His comments sparked backlash from both pro-choice advocates and his pro-life supporters, leading to confusion about his actual stance. Trump has previously taken credit for the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which he claims has led to effective abortion laws in various states.
