BY NORMAN EISEN, RUTH BEN-GHIAT, SIVEN WATT, ANDREW WARREN, JACOB KOVACS-GOODMAN and FRANCOIS BARRILLEAUX | If reelected, former President Donald Trump has said he will be a dictator on “day one.”
Anti-abortion groups with ties to Trump and the conservative movement have plans to use the presidency to limit abortion access. Trump himself recently signaled his support for a national abortion ban and took credit for overturning Roe v. Wade and helping states institute abortion bans. The Project 2025 agenda would roll back abortion access expansions under the Biden administration and go even further by restricting abortion medication.
In this three-part American Autocracy series, we track Trump’s comments on feminist issues. This installment: the threat a Trump presidency poses for abortion.

That all culminated in the attempted interruption of the peaceful transfer of power following the 2020 election.
In this three-part American Autocracy series, we track Trump’s comments on feminist issues. This installment: his stance on political enemies and those who disagree with him.
