Jennings: Can Dems Elevate Abortion up and Make it More Important than Prices, Border Crisis, and Crime?
EXCERPT:
JENNINGS: “Well, look, the voters who are motivated by this issue will absolutely hold Donald Trump responsible. And that cuts both ways. For the pro-life voters who wanted to see Roe go away, he’s responsible for it. And for the people who lean Karen’s way, they also hold Trump responsible for it. The question is, is this going to be the top issue in the election? And that’s really the friction between the two campaigns. The Biden campaign wants this election to be largely about abortion and other cultural issues. The Trump campaign, they announced their position today, Wolf, on eclipse day, because they’re hoping this issue is eclipsed by the economy, immigration, the border, what have you. And so whatever Donald Trump’s position is, he said it today, some people are happy, some people are not, but Democrats are going to call him extreme on it. The real question is, can Democrats elevate this up the line and make it more important than, say, food prices or the border chaos or crime? And I’m dubious they can do that.”
