Ohio Sen. JD Vance, former President Donald Trump’s running mate, on Saturday said Trump would veto a federal abortion ban if a bill were to be passed by Congress.

Asked on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” about GOP lawmakers like South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham who would want to see Trump advocate for and pass an abortion ban, Vance told moderator Kristen Welker that Trump has “explicitly” said he would veto a ban.

“I mean, if you’re not supporting it, as the president of the United States, you fundamentally have to veto it,” Vance argued.

The latest position from the Trump campaign comes as the former president has changed his position on abortion policy over the years.

[Think. Again.]

1. Vetoing a federal abortion ban goes directly against project2025...

...so no, trump would definitely NOT veto it.

[jimfields33]

3. He did say it's a state issue. So he might VETO it.

Luckily, he won’t be given the option. President Harris will also veto it.

[Think. Again.]

8. He has also said he's been better for "the Blacks" than Lincoln.

[Walleye]

27. Confederates thought slavery was a state issue as well.

So it tracks that they would think the same thing about women’s right?

30. Vance's Statement is Meaningless

#1 -- 98% of everything Trump says is a lie.

#2 -- 95% of everything Vance says is a lie.

#3 -- Wouldn't pass the Senate.

#4 -- Kamala is going to win, so its a moot point.

35. Now it is about passing a bill

Too late. If he does not say he will work on a bill to enshrine abortion, whatever else he says is BS.

"Until we get power. Then we will do whatever the Hell the plutocrats and kristofascists want. Ha ha, suckers." - JD (R - Jr. Con Man)

5. bullshit

[groundloop]

6. HEY MAGGATS, are you listening??? tRump is PRO-ABORTION!!!!!!

[Trueblue Texan]

7. Oh. They are scared. nt

[Irish_Dem]

10. Yes. Their poll numbers with women must be terrible.

So they have to go out and lie like crazy.

[2naSalit]

9. Sounds like a guy...

Who not only talks out of both sides of his face, he also does a lot of talking with his anal sphincter.

[Irish_Dem]

11. Yep Vance is definitely talking out his ass.

[WSHazel]

12. Democrats should be hammering Trump on this issue

Trump is on both sides of the abortion issue. This is one of the more dishonest and manipulative campaign stunts there has ever been. Democrats need to lean in on this.

[J_William_Ryan]

13. Vance is a liar.

No doubt Trump would sign such a ban into law.

And Trump is lying about ‘sending it back to the states.’

[DemonGoddess]

14. Indeed

I have a bridge to sell you....

[modrepub]

15. No Need To Veto A Congressional Bill

When your court appointees will effectively ban or make it very difficult for many to obtain reproductive health services (it's more than just abortion, it's the morning after pill and fertility services also).

[Scrivener7]

16. Their lips are moving. They're lying.

Happily, that statement will lose them some of their base.

[FakeNoose]

32. Does anyone even listen to their lies? I don't think so

[Scrivener7]

33. Many of his followers are not brainy. Some will know he's lying. Many who don't know

will be livid that he is abandoning their only issue.

[genxlib]

17. Yeah, and all the Conservative Supreme Court justices said RvW was settled law

And yet, here we are.

[paleotn]

18. Even if true, it's irrelevant to women all across Jebus land.

Fuck you, JD Whatever the hell your real name is.

[Prairie Gates]

19. He says "explicitly," then explains the reasoning for his implicit inference

These people want to destroy the meaning of words so they can lie more.

[twodogsbarking]

20. So there you have it. Trump would support a national abortion ban.

[NYC Liberal]

21. Roe was "settled law," until it wasn't.

Trump will veto a ban. Until he doesn't.

[Botany]

22. Liar

Both Trump and Guy-Liner have said they want it to be given to the states so the idea of
a national law is moot.

[PSPS]

23. "Trump has 'explicitly' said he would (fill in blank)" *

* Promise is subject to the next tweet/tantrum/bribe/compliment

[billcomp1]

24. If He Says Something, The Opposite is Often True

But it is hard to tell.
Most politicians shift their stances and stories.
But he can't deny that he made the comment that he was "responsible" for Roe versus Wade being dismantled by the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court ruling had national implications.

In either case, we are dealing with two flim-flam men, Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance.
It is extremely hard to believe anything either one says, especially this close to the election, but it was hard to do that before also.

[Oopsie Daisy]

25. Lying liar tells lies and then lies about that, too.

[Diamond_Dog]

26. Lindsay Graham???

Here’s a single guy who knows jack shit about women’s health, feeling like he has the right to issue an opinion on this, which is to ban all abortions.

They can all go straight to hell.

[C_U_L8R]

28. It would be news if he actually told the truth

But this is the same old bullshit. The Trump bait and switch. The big lie.

[Butterflylady]

29. Hey Vance, gotta know that whatever the Heritage Foundation

Wants their puppet will do. They have groomed and waited for the right time to spring it on us. But the person they picked for their bidding was not up to task. Too bad, so sad......not.

[cstanleytech]

31. Yeah he really needs a nose job.

[Zoomie1986]

34. After tens of thousands of lies

Why believe the anti-American buffoon now?
