Quick Glance: Trump Criticizes Six-Week Ban as 'Terrible'

  • 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.
