Vice President Kamala Harris paused briefly after telling an audience last month in Las Vegas, “So, let’s all be clear.” What followed has become a hallmark of her public campaign against states’ abortion bans.
“What we are seeing in these states that we are talking about are Trump abortion bans, and he can’t get away from that,” Harris said, repeating the line for effect: “Those are Trump abortion bans.”
The phrase has become Harris’ go-to club in her political golf bag as she aims to attack the electoral flag by blaming Donald Trump, the former president and presumed Republican nominee, for the ending of federal abortion protections and the subsequent bans on the procedure in some states.
