Trump says he won't restrict the abortion pill but leaves open the possibility: 'Things change'

By Ryan Foley - Posted at The Christian Post:

President-elect Donald Trump is doubling down on his prior insistence that he will not take action to restrict access to the abortion pill mifepristone while suggesting that he has not closed the door on changing his mind in the future.

Trump discussed a wide variety of topics in an interview with NBC's Kristen Welker that aired on "Meet the Press" Sunday. When asked if he would "restrict the ability of abortion pills" after taking office in January, Trump responded, "I'll probably stay with exactly what I've been saying for the last two years, and the answer is no."

When Welker followed up by inquiring as to whether he would "commit to that," Trump replied: "Do things change? I think they change."

The president-elect mentioned how President Joe Biden repeatedly promised not to pardon his son Hunter only to reverse course and issue a pardon for his son last week.

"I don't like putting myself in a position like that, so things do change. But I don't think it's going to change at all," Trump said on the abortion pill.
