Well, first off, let’s acknowledge that the statement in question is complete bullshit. Trump didn’t “terminate” Roe v. Wade; he appointed three Supreme Court justices who, along with a majority of the court, overturned the decision. So technically, it was the Supreme Court, not Trump, that “terminated” Roe v. Wade.
Now, onto Biden’s jab… While it’s true that Biden opposes the overturning of Roe v. Wade and would like to see it upheld, his comment about Trump “terminating” Roe v. Wade is disingenuous at best. It oversimplifies a complex political and legal issue and incorrectly implies that Trump had sole control over the outcome.
In reality, the overturning of Roe v. Wade was the result of a long-term shift in the balance of the Supreme Court, which began well before Trump took office. Many other factors also contributed to the outcome, such as changes in public opinion, legislative efforts, and grassroots activism.
So, while both candidates are trying to score points on this issue, it’s important to remember that the truth is more nuanced than either of them is letting on.
