Former President Donald Trump called Friday's Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade "the biggest WIN for LIFE in a generation" — and gave himself credit for the outcome in the controversial decision to undo federal abortion rights.

Trump nominated three of the five conservative Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade: Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett.

He did the evil angels bidding. No surprise here. He needs them, especially since he's starting to lose ground. If the presidential primary was tomorrow, DeSantis would swamp him.

Every single one of those picks said R v W was established precedence and they weren't interested in touching it. I wonder how conservatives feel having confirmed liars on the highest court in the land. Everything they say and do is suspect now.

They don’t care. I’m sure they’re rejoicing.

But yes, extremely suspect and hypocritical

I'm making a mental note because I have a feeling we'll be hearing "Trump is out of office, so he isn't to blame for this mess" and since he has already taken credit for it.

Yep, as long as they get what they want then the ends justify the means. Disgusting. I would hope this has midterm consequences for the GOP but I have no faith in this country any longer.

Called it.

A spokesperson for Miller told The Associated Press the line was a "mix up of words."

"You can clearly see in the video ... she's looking at her papers and looking at her speech," Isaiah Wartman, the spokesperson, told the AP.
