4. Historical Context: Trump–Harris Debate Recap

  • Debate moment:

    “Donald Trump hand selected three members of the United States Supreme Court with the intention that they would undo the protections of Roe v. Wade. And they did exactly as he intended. And now in over 20 states there are Trump abortion bans.” (Kamala Harris, 11:27)
