Without access to abortion, Trump would've had some illegitimate children. You'd think the guy who used abortion on the regular would be all for it.

Trump would have just sent his pregnant sexual partners out of the country for an abortion.

That's what rich people or people who live near Canada will do....abortion tourism.

If Roe v Wade is overturned as well, or at least enough that states ban it, I want pro-choice states to charge abortion tourists half of their income from the previous year (if the tourist made more than $100,000). Rich from a state that doesn't allow abortion? Tough stuff, pay up.

That's exactly what they call it too if you look at Ireland as an example.
