Punishing women is the Republican way, so it's not too surprising that former President Donald Trump, who was found liable for sexual abuse, said in 2016 that women should be punished if they get an abortion procedure. He hasn't changed much, only his tone on abortion until he gets into office -- a thing we hope will never happen. Trump is very proud of overturning Roe and spends quite a bit of time bragging about it.
In a lengthy interview with Time, the former President doubled down.
"He would let red states monitor women's pregnancies and prosecute those who violate abortion bans," the outlet reports. "He would, at his personal discretion, withhold funds appropriated by Congress, according to top advisers. He would be willing to fire a U.S. Attorney who doesn't carry out his order to prosecute someone, breaking with a tradition of independent law enforcement that dates from America's founding."
