Former president Trump frequently takes credit for helping to overturn Roe v. Wade.

But in recent weeks, he has posted on Truth Social, his social media site, that his administration would be “great for women and their reproductive rights.” He suggested that he might vote for a Florida ballot measure allowing abortion up to around 24 weeks, before reversing his position.

With these shifting messages, Donald Trump is basically daring anti-abortion voters to turn on him. So will they?

On this week’s show, we check in with Dr. R. Albert Mohler Jr., president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and a leading voice for American evangelicals, to find out.
