"You will be protected, and I will be your protector," Donald Trump assured women at a rally Monday, seeking to boost his appeal among female voters after boasting of his responsibility for overturning Roe v. Wade, being found liable for sexual abuse and convicted of covering up hush money paid to an adult film star after allegedly cheating on his wife.
The former president has not been polling well among women, in part due to his opposition to national abortion rights. A recent NBC News poll found that Vice President Kamala Harris leads Trump among female voters by 58% to 37%.
