Trump also confirmed in the interview that he supported exceptions in abortion legislation for "the life of the mother, raping and incest."
"Just as Ronald Reagan was a believer in the exceptions, but I'm a believer in the exceptions," he added.
DeSantis' abortion bill, signed in mid-April, bans most abortions beyond six weeks but includes exceptions for rape and incest. Existing state exceptions for the life of the mother also remain in place.
I don't understand how you could be pro-life and support exceptions for rape and incest. What does that have to do with anything? The life of the mother, I can understand. But rape and incest are just two random crimes that could lead to a pregnancy.

It's like how gun control advocates support complete bans but will take what they can get. A war isn't won in one fell swoop.
In the meantime, there's plenty of people on the ground who speak out to pregnant women about keeping the baby in cases of rape/incest.
