Former Vice President Mike Pence argued his ex-boss, former President Trump, has betrayed the Republican Party with an aversion to signing a national abortion ban if elected in 2024.
Pence said his proudest accomplishment while serving as Trump’s VP was the overturning of Roe v. Wade, adding that it is now “disheartening” for him to see the former president “retreat from the pro-life cause.”
“No,” Trump said when asked by reporters two weeks ago in Georgia if he would sign a national abortion ban if it passed Congress and came to his desk if he’s reelected.
Pence, again, expressed his disappointment with Trump’s embrace of the position that abortion policy should left to the states. He previously called the former president’s position on the issue a “slap in the face.”
“He is leading other Republicans astray,” Pence wrote in the op-ed about Trump, now the GOP’s 2024 presumptive presidential nominee.
