RNC Plans to Strategically Conceal Trump's, GOP's Abortion Views

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

72% : This week, the Biden campaign released an ad attacking Trump for his record on abortion, including his statements describing the Supreme Court's overturn of Roe as "a great thing.""Ask yourself: who do you want in the White House?
56% : Despite Trump saying numerous times that he is "proud" to have appointed the Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe, Trump has tampered down his own statements regarding abortion.
40% : "As such, a decree on banning abortion throughout the U.S. isn't likely to be included in the platform, as doing so could cause moderate voters to back away from Trump in the voting booth come November.
33% : For the first time in four decades, Republicans may remove a policy plank calling for a nationwide abortion ban from their official party platform -- a strategic omission to help Trump win the White House this fall.
29% : Earlier this year, Trump again appeared to endorse a 15-week abortion ban across the country.
27% : The GOP's move to omit a call for a national abortion ban has upset many anti-abortion groups who were planning to support Trump.
27% : After that view was widely condemned, Trump tweaked his purported beliefs, choosing instead to peddle "states' rights" talking points on abortion.
25% : But it also constitutes flagrant gaslighting from the former president and his party, as Trump has stated unequivocally in the past that he backs a nationwide abortion ban.
23% : In his 2016 run for president, for example, Trump said "there has to be some form of punishment" for a person receiving an abortion.
