Lara Trump Praises Trump for ‘Democratic’ Reversal of Roe v Wade on Fox & Friends

 

Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump praised her father-in-law, former President Donald Trump, for appointing the three Supreme Court Justices and paving the way for Roe v. Wade to be overturned — calling the decision “the most democratic thing.”

Tuesday marks two years since Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health Organization was handed down, which ended the federal right to an abortion, leaving states to make their own policies, including some that have total bans. In the time since public opinion — by a margin of two to one — has been in favor of abortion rights.

Lara Trump told Fox & Friends co-host Ainsley Earhardt that Dobbs was the “right decision,” giving Trump credit for the conservative supermajority on the highest court in the land:

Earhardt: Okay, Lara, let’s talk about today. It’s the anniversary when the Supreme Court made that historic decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. That was actually two years ago today. So this is a big issue for a lot of women around the country, abortion. How will he handle that on Thursday?

Trump: Well, look, Donald Trump obviously nominated three Supreme Court justices to the bench who made the right decision and actually set Roe v Wade out and said, listen, this is up to the states. It shouldn’t be up to a small group of people in Washington, D.C. The most democratic thing now has happened. And I think that’s what Donald Trump has continued to say: it goes back to the states. So every respective state gives we the people the opportunity to opine on such a major decision such as this. I think you’re going to hear that from Donald Trump. It’s what he has continued to say. And if we’re being honest, this is just about the only thing the Democrats think they can run on this election cycle. I think Donald Trump will have a great response for it.
