Trump's public statement about rejecting a federal abortion ban seemed to echo Vance's previous comments on the matter. On the campaign trail, both candidates sought to distance themselves from some of the more extreme anti-abortion views of the Republican party.
Vance argued that the Republican party had lost credibility on the topic of abortion. 'We've got to do so much better of a job at earning the American people's trust back... I want us as a Republican Party to be pro-family in the fullest sense of the word.'
Despite his history of supporting anti-abortion measures, this shift in messaging is likely a bid for moderate voters who were put off by the fall of Roe.
Trump declared on social media that he 'would not support a federal abortion ban, under any circumstances,' and would veto such a bill if it came across his desk.
