...Trump suggested he supports “POWERFUL EXCEPTIONS” for rape and incest, even though he has no sway over state-level abortion laws and has refused to clarify his position on implementing a nationwide abortion policy of any kind.
The Supreme Court’s demolition of Roe v. Wade has proved overwhelmingly unpopular, although he has repeatedly claimed, falsely, that the move was actually popular.
According to a New York Times/Siena College poll last month, an increasing share of voters in swing states are saying abortion access is their top policy concern. That puts Trump, who has bragged about appointing the conservative Supreme Court justices that helped tip the scales in favor of repealing Roe, in a difficult spot.

Donald Trump’s latest boast about his crowd size fell apart in a hurry as he was fact-checked in real-time while he was still speaking.
“We do a lot of these beautiful rallies, and it’s so great,” the former president said in Reading, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday. “We never have an empty seat, never have, look at it.”...
... During his event in Reading, Trump bragged that he had 100,000 people in attendance in Butler, Pennsylvania, over the weekend, a number that is more than quadruple the estimate of about 24,000 from CBS station KDKA.
The capacity of Santander Arena in Reading, where Trump spoke Wednesday, is between 7,200 and 8,800, depending on the configuration....
