I absolutely think that’s what happened. I don’t think abortion has ever


Been anything but a path to power for him, which it was in ‘16, and now, an obstacle to his return to power. He has no convictions about abortion itself, but very strong convictions about how it effects him personally.

Some repubs have (imo) gaslighted themselves that there’s public consensus around 15 weeks with exceptions. I think that’s far from clear, as your guy Youngkin found out, the hard way. And I think a growing number of thoughtful people are seeing the evidence that medical exception provisions are pretty close to worthless. So, I suspect Trump listened to the gaslighters at first, and then other advisors made him think better of it.
