JUST NOW: Vice President Harris Responds to Trump Bragging He ‘Broke Roe’ and Extreme State Bans are ‘Working Very Brilliantly’

Vice President Harris: A second Trump term would mean “More bans, more suffering, and less freedom.”

Tonight in Tucson, Arizona, Vice President Harris responded directly to Donald Trump’s comments at Mar-a-Lago earlier today — bragging that he “broke Roe” and saying the extreme abortion bans that resulted are “working the way it is supposed to”:

“Donald Trump is the architect of this health care crisis. And that is not a fact by the way that he hides. In fact, he brags about it. Just this week he said that he is ‘proudly the person responsible’ for overturning Roe, ‘proudly responsible’ for the pain and suffering of millions of women and families, ‘proudly responsible’ that he took your freedoms.

“And just minutes ago, standing beside Speaker Johnson, Donald Trump just said the collection of state bans is quote, ‘working the way it is supposed to.’ And as much harm as he has already caused, a second Trump term would be even worse.”

“Here’s what a second Trump term looks like. More bans, more suffering, and less freedom. Just like he did in Arizona, he basically wants to take America back to the 1800s. But we are not going to let that happen. Because, here’s the deal: this is 2024, not the 1800s, and we’re not going back. We are not going back. Joe Biden and I trust women to know what is in their own best interest. And women trust all of us to fight to protect their most fundamental freedoms.”
