MICHAEL KNOWLES (HOST): Trump watered down the GOP platform on pro life. Did he? He's the first president who showed up — sitting president to show up to the March for Life, and he appointed the justices who after 49 years got Roe v Wade overruled. You're gonna go after Trump's pro-life bona fides? And then after the Dobbs decision which overruled Roe v Wade, the political calculations changed. It's a different world and so you've got to adapt your strategies politically to that changing world. But Trump said that himself. He said, look, we gotta get elected. I don't see any evidence that Trump has moved the GOP to the left on abortion. If anything, practically speaking, he's moved it to the right.
