From the Washington Post's staid political tout Dan Balz, who gets it right on this:
"It took little more than a day for Donald Trump’s political gambit on abortion to come undone.
On Monday, the former president declined to support any new national law setting limits on abortions. Going against the views of many abortion opponents in his Republican Party, Trump was looking for a way to neutralize or at least muddy a galvanizing issue that has fueled Democratic victories for nearly two years. He hoped to keep it mostly out of the conversation ahead of the November elections.
On Tuesday, the Arizona Supreme Court showed just how difficult it will be to do that. The court resurrected an 1864 law that bans nearly all abortions, except to save the life of the mother. The law also imposes penalties on abortion providers.
Trump had said let the states handle the issue. The Arizona court showed the full implications of that states’ rights strategy." (our emphasis)
The Malignant Loser knows his central role in striking down Roe v. Wade -- one that he still brags about -- will be a prime issue working strongly against him and MAGAts in November. His attempt to con people into thinking that his approach is broadly popular was blown apart by Arizona's top court, and the backlash it's getting. One only has to look at places like Texas, Alabama, and now Arizona to see that his gambit only means draconian laws in red states that punish women and healthcare providers, and eliminate reproductive choice.
The Malignant Loser is to blame for this. Period.
