Donald Trump said he was in favor of a national ban on abortion beyond a certain number of weeks. But with three exceptions: in cases of rape, incest or threat to the life of the mother.

The ex-president spoke in an interview with Fox News this week, a few days after securing the Republican nomination. Donald Trump's former vice-president, Mike Pence, who announced this week that he would not support him for the November election, also deplored that he did not take a stronger stance on abortion during the 2020 campaign.
