Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), former President Trump’s running mate, said the GOP ticket will try to sell its agenda to women but said that, ultimately, female voters will decide how to vote. In an interview on CBS News’s “Face the Nation,” moderator Margaret Brennan asked Vance about recent polling showing 56 percent of women saying the Trump campaign pays too little attention to women’s concerns and 40 percent say the campaign pays too much attention to men’s concerns. “You say one of your top advisers is your wife, Usha,” Brennan said, which Vance affirmed, adding, “The top adviser.” “So what is she telling you?” Brennan continued. “Because the data says you do have a women problem.” “Well, what she's telling me is we got to make the case to women as well as we can, and ultimately, trust in the wisdom of those women to make a determination about what's in the best interest of their family,” he said. Vance made his pitch “to women voters, and frankly, to men voters too, but to all Americans” that Trump will lower costs, make communities safer, open up American energy and secure the southern border. “I think that we can make a good case to women, but I'm not going to tell them who they have to vote for. I'm going to try to persuade them. The voters are ultimately going to decide,” he said. Nearly two-thirds, 63 percent, of Americans say abortion should be legal in all or most cases, according to Pew Research Center data. The 2024 presidential election is the first since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022. The Trump campaign has sought to navigate the issue delicately, embracing the position that states should have the right to determine their laws. Abortion bans or restrictions have taken effect in 21 states since Roe was overturned two years ago. Vice President Harris has warned that “no one is protected” from a potential federal ban on abortions if Congress passes such legislation and Trump signed it into law. Trump said earlier this month he would veto a national abortion ban. He later said that a national abortion ban is "off the table," but he left the door open to the conversation, saying, "we'll see what happens."
