Trump put to rest speculation that he is not making a major shift from the positions of Republican presidential nominees on abortion dating back to Ronald Reagan.
Trump reiterated that he is 'strongly in favor of exceptions for rape, incest, and life of the mother', and that while pro-life voters 'must follow your heart,' they 'must also win elections' to reverse America’s broader decline.
It remains to be seen if the new statement will mark a return to the broad pro-life platform Trump ran on in his previous candidacies or double down on attempts to chart a new middle ground on the issue.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski switching parties is a no-brainer, and Sens. Susan Collins and Todd Young are two more possibilities. The predictability of the issue is actually quite simple: almost all senators kneel at the altar of money, nothing else.
U.S. Reps. Josh Brecheen of Oklahoma, Bob Good of Virginia, Mary Miller of Illinois, and Matt Rosendale of Montana sent a letter to VA Secretary Denis McDonough objecting to the policy.
Kellyanne Conway, who formerly served as Donald Trump's senior adviser, encouraged Republicans to tell Democrats, 'You show me your exceptions. And I'll show you mine.'
