Trump goes silent on Supreme Court abortion ruling

More than nine hours after the Supreme Court ruled to overturn two provisions of a Texas anti-abortion law on Monday, the Republican Party's presumptive nominee has yet to comment.

The 5-3 decision in Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt, which marks the biggest victory for abortion rights advocates in the past 20 years, ruled that the Texas law would have shut down clinics and keep women from accessing abortion treatment.

Donald Trump, who has said in the past that he is "very pro-choice," has struggled to clearly explain his position on abortion during the 2016 campaign.

He veered sharply right on the issue amid the hothouse Republican primary, at one point remarking to MSNBC host Chris Matthews, “there has to be some form of punishment” for women seeking to get abortions. He later clarified in a written statement that "the doctor or any other person performing this illegal act upon a woman would be held legally responsible, not the woman."
“My position has not changed — like Ronald Reagan, I am pro-life with exceptions," Trump said in the statement.

Nor was that the first time Trump had stumbled on the issue. During one of his early interviews with CNN anchor Jake Tapper, Trump was asked to confirm that he is "opposed to abortion."

"You’re pro-choice or pro-life?" Tapper asked.

"I’m pro-life. I’m sorry," Trump said.[/SIZE]
