    A “3 month ban” is moderate compared to what the Republican, and his own, views on abortion are. For his crowd this is basically saying “I’m okay with murder before 3 months,” which exposes the political stunt this is.

    This is basically the Scandinavian model though, over time abortions become more risky and serious a procedure, first trimester is the common “no questions asked” window for countries who have legal abortions. RFK Jr doesn’t actually agree with this, he’s been committed to making abortion illegal in any window since he started his news org.
