Donald Trump's own platform could effectively ban [in vitro fertilization] and abortion nationwide", a spokesperson for Kamala Harris's campaign said in response to Trump's latest IVF comments.

The Harris campaign statement continued:

Because Trump overturned Roe v. Wade, IVF is already under attack and women's freedoms have been ripped away in states across the country. There is only one candidate in this race who trusts women and will protect our freedom to make our own health care decisions: Vice President Kamala Harris.

Congratulations to Donald Trump for realizing that his position and his record on abortion are wildly unpopular, particularly with women who will decide this election.

But rather than give him credit for a disingenuous and unserious proposal that contradicts his own GOP platform, we'll credit him for something he actually did: overturning Roe v Wade, ending abortion access for millions of women across the country, and jeopardizing reproductive freedom for all of us.
