"There of course remains a vital role for the federal government in protecting unborn life," Trump announced. "We will bring everybody together to protect our precious unborn babies in a very, very big way."
A poll from Morning Consult revealed that Trump holds a strong lead over Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and a smaller lead over Biden for the 2024 presidential election.
In terms of popularity, Trump enjoys an approval rate of 79% among potential GOP voters, while DeSantis is viewed favorably by 71% of the party's electorate.
DeSantis' announcement, released in an audio-only format, was made public through an FEC filing ahead of a virtual conversation with Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter.
"When you’re leading by seemingly insurmountable numbers, and you have hostile Networks with angry, TRUMP & MAGA hating anchors asking the 'questions,' why subject yourself to being libeled and abused?" Trump asked.
