What Next: Protecting Abortion, Electing Trump

Donald Trump’s position on abortion was opaque enough that even
states that passed protections for abortion rights still voted for
him by a large margin. But even if a national abortion
ban—something JD Vance has spoken in favor of—is probably untenable

access to abortion across the country?  Guest: Caroline
Kitchener, national reporter covering abortion for the Washington
Post.  Want more What Next? Subscribe to Slate Plus to access
