Yes, Trump mentioned Kansas. During the first third of the debate, Trump proudly described how the Supreme Court, with “genius and heart,” had overturned Roe v. Wade. In Trump’s words, by overturning precedent, the court gave “every legal scholar, every Democrat, every Republican, liberal, conservative” exactly what they wanted: a series of state-wide referendums on abortion. Of course, this is not what everyone wanted.
Nevertheless, Trump continued, describing the 2022 vote in Kansas and another in 2023 in Ohio. The Kansas and Ohio results preserved or codified constitutional protections for abortion in each state. Trump described the votes this way: “Now, Ohio, the vote was somewhat liberal. Kansas the vote was somewhat liberal. Much more liberal than people would have thought.”
By describing the Kansas vote, an 18-point win for abortion-rights advocates, as liberal, Trump hinted that he sees something unusual, something slanted about the results. Perhaps the former president should see an overwhelmingly conservative state emphatically rejecting abortion restrictions.
