Biden Attempts to Zing Trump on Roe v. Wade, Learns Why So Many People Still Love the Former Prez

Here comes Joe Biden to make "clear" what you already knew: Democrats are going to make the 2024 election all about abortion. Fresh off of almost setting the White House afire with his candle-laden birthday cake, Biden took to X/Twitter Tuesday in an ineffectual attempt to zing his presumed rival, Donald Trump, over the 2022 reversal of Roe v. Wade.

Donald Trump is running for president bragging about how he “killed Roe v. Wade.”

Let’s be clear: The only reason a fundamental right has been stripped away from the American people for the first time in American history is because of Trump.

It's important to note that Biden tweeted from his personal account, not his official presidential account. That means this is a campaign rallying cry we'll be hearing repeatedly for the next eleven months.

Note also that Community Notes swooped in to set Biden straight on a crucial point: "Abortion is not a fundamental right of Americans. The US Bill of Rights outlines the fundamental US rights and abortion is not listed." Also, "Abortion was illegal in all but 4 states before the Roe v. Wade decision in 1972. There was never a 'fundamental right to abortion' prior to Roe v Wade."

Biden — the most devout Catholic ever! — knows this, of course, but he also knows that Roe v. Wade is a dog whistle for Democrats and their far-left base of gleeful baby killers. Even the merest mention of Roe brings on the twisted faces of rage, the floods of tears and profanities, and the hilarious screeds about Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Democrats need these miscreants to show up on election day, so prepare for the hysterics.

Trump has made the overturning of Roe v. Wade a campaign issue of his own, playing up his role in the SCOTUS decision:

“After 50 years of failure, with nobody coming even close, I was able to kill Roe v. Wade, much to the ‘shock’ of everyone,” Trump, the former president and front-runner for the 2024 Republican nomination, said on his social media platform.
Trump said his actions have “put the Pro Life movement in a strong negotiating position” against proponents of abortion rights, giving himself credit for the various bans that are being advanced by conservatives across the country. More than a dozen states have enacted abortion limits since Roe was overturned last summer.
“Without me there would be no 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 15 weeks, or whatever is finally agreed to. Without me the pro Life movement would have just kept losing,” Trump added.

The sad sacks over at "Morning Joe" even put together a compilation video of Trump "bragging" — something the Trump campaign could easily turn into a campaign video because, let's be clear, plenty of people still love Donald Trump for his Supreme Court nominations. Nominations that, ultimately, played a huge part in overturning Roe.

Trump knows very well that, when faced in 2016 with the idea of Hillary Clinton filling several Supreme Court vacancies, voters flocked to him instead. This is something he is right to brag about, but he'll need to go further with the messaging around abortion. Republicans in Virginia learned the hard way this year that always being on the defense about abortion will lose them votes, so serious 2024 candidates will need to take the Joe Bidens of the world to task for their radical, anti-life stances.
