So Trump now says abortion should be left up to the states…and now the Cult Of The Fetus is throwing a fit over that…

Top anti-abortion activists are upset with former President Donald Trump this morning.

The former president was instrumental to the fall of Roe v. Wade, having appointed three of the Supreme Court justices who gave the green light for states to enact total bans on abortion. But that wasn’t enough for many in the anti-abortion movement, and for weeks speculation has persisted over whether Trump would endorse some sort of federal ban on the procedure.

On Monday, Trump finally broke his silence and declined to do so, saying that, “The states will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both, and whatever they decide must be the law of the land.” While Trump did not endorse a national abortion ban, in the same video he bragged about being responsible for ending Roe v. Wade and effectively endorsed every total ban that has been passed at the state level.

Nevertheless, the Susan B. Anthony List, one of the largest anti-abortion groups in the United States, came out with a statement slamming the former president.

“We are deeply disappointed in President Trump’s position,” said SBA President Marjorie Dannenfelser. “Unborn children and their mothers deserve national protections and national advocacy from the brutality of the abortion industry … saying the issue is ‘back to the states’ cedes the national debate to the Democrats who are working relentlessly to enact legislation mandating abortion throughout all nine months of pregnancy. If successful, they will wipe out states’ rights.”

SBA wasn’t alone — various other hardliners expressed their displeasure too. “I’m not sure a major candidate has ever produced a worse statement on Life than the one I just watched,” posted Doug Stafford, a senior strategist for Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY). And Darrell B. Harrison of the Arizona Redeemer Bible Church wrote, “The truth is that when it comes to the murder of unborn image-bearers of God … the Republican Party is becoming increasingly indistinguishable from the Democrat [sic] Party.”
