Quick Glance: Trump Criticizes Six-Week Ban as 'Terrible'
  • Donald Trump, former president and front-runner in the Republican primary, labeled a state abortion law signed by his top rival, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R), that enforces a six-week ban as 'terrible'.

  • Trump refused and stated his intention to negotiate with Democrats on the matter.

  • DeSantis quietly signed the six-week ban in the spring but has recently been discussing abortion more openly — causing concern among some Republicans who fear he has shifted too far right on an issue that could harm them in the general election.

  • Nevertheless, the Florida governor declined to support the national 15-week abortion ban endorsed by some competitors, highlighting the political sensitivity of the issue for Republicans.

  • According to Roberts, the Supreme Court cannot allow popular opinion to drive its decision-making.

  • The sight of the high court surrounded by barriers, according to the chief justice, was "gut-wrenching."

  • According to CNN, Roberts stated that while all of the court's decisions are available to criticism, "simply because people disagree with opinions, is not a basis for questioning the legitimacy of the court,"

  • "You don't want the political branches telling you what the law is.

  • And you don't want public opinion to be the guide of what the appropriate decision is," Roberts told the Post.

  • Mr. Pence stated last year that anti-abortion advocates "must not rest" until abortion is prohibited nationwide.
