If you believe Trump will protect IVF, I have a used car, a bridge in London and a patch of blue sky to sell you.

Well would you look at that? Trump became pro choice literally overnight. It's a miracle! A miracle I tell you!

Only 11 more days for Dump to drop out and claim it was rigged.

Trump pro-choice to pro-life, Vance from Trump is America's Hitler to Trump is great. Talk about policy shifts.

His next policy announcement will be to allow a free pass at the border as long as the person commits to voting for him him up for January 6th.

I don’t get it! It’s been almost four years since those comments. Don’t she has the right to reconsider? She has gotten more experience over the years. It’s not Harris who is flip flopping but Trump and his shared brain sidekick. Trump is now changing his views on abortion…… thing is his base/maga is not pleased with him 😂

[Rmer]

That same tired old playbook. Excellent response.

[scooterbaby]

Just like Mexico would pay for the wall, nothing more then a clown

[KaleighMacKay]

The thing about both of them is Harris says she’s changed her opinion as she’s spoken to people and got consensus - Trump lies and says something like “I never said that” Trump used to be pro-life then he overturned Roe v Wade.

Trump: A 6 week abortion ban is too strict but women who have abortions should be punished.

[wictimovgovonca]

I'm not thinking of a campaign - but he put it on TikTok. What a lying SOS.

[timothye]

Wow..trump is schizophrenic, now he supports Roe? The cognitive dissonance is staggering

[Korloko]

🍊: Oh we’re down? Let’s alienate my base, and make everyone else think I’m a spineless liar🤥

[judithelaine]

He would sell his own mother if it benefit him. He'll have no problem selling out his cult if that means he gets power!

[charpettey]

Why aren't they talking about Trump on his shift overnight on women's rights to IVF and not a total abortion ban. In four years, you can change your position but overnight. I am starting to hate main media. They are all bias.

[trudycolborne]

Trump has abandoned the pro-life position that got him elected the first time. It's a huge betrayal.

[trudycolborne]

"We need more than 6 weeks." If you believe life begins at conception you should have chosen Desantis. This man will do nothing for you.

[ViSongs]

The people at msnbc need to give their heads a shake. Could you imagine them actually holding trump accountable for his ... well, everything.

Mainstream media really is on its way out.

[martin]

So the guy accusing Harris of being a flip-flopper is now flip flopping (again) on abortion. Got it.

[JohnYoung-jsbl]

What will the "some form of punishment" take?
