Trump's 2024 campaign avoids discussing abortion stance.

Donald Trump, who has done more than any other elected Republican to restrict abortion rights in the US, is avoiding the issue in the early days of the 2024 presidential campaign. While his GOP rivals are aggressively pushing anti-abortion plans, Trump is sidestepping the issue, refusing to say whether he would support a federal law restricting abortion in every state. This cautious approach reflects a new political reality for Republicans, who acknowledge that the GOP's success in persuading Trump's remade Supreme Court to overturn Roe v Wade last June ultimately triggered a fierce backlash that boosted Democrats in November's midterms.
