Donald Trump faces a dilemma just months into his third run for president: Two of his most important achievements from the White House have become politically complicated or just plain too hot to touch. Operation Warp Speed, the public-private partnership that developed a coronavirus vaccine in record time and which Trump once called a “miracle,” has become vilified among a group of conservatives. And the toppling of Roe v. Wade by Trump-appointed Supreme Court justices has turned into a political Rorschach test for Republicans, with one camp seeing it as a boost at the ballot box and the other fearing it is a hindrance. Elsewhere, Trump has praised the anti-abortion movement and his role in picking conservative justices, but has also criticized some leaders in that movement for not doing enough in the 2022 midterm election. He has also said the issue was “poorly handled” by Republicans, pointing to members and candidates who advocated for no exceptions to bans on abortion. Trump’s team believes that he can thread the needle between touting the work he did in facilitating the end of Roe while staying on the popular side of public opinion about abortion restrictions. “Especially in the primary, it’s a very strong talking point for the president. He’s got a good record, and he’s on good ground going into the primary and general election,” said John McLaughlin, a Republican pollster who advises Trump. “His position since he ran for office and since he was in office has been consistent.” But navigating those twin achievements from his time in office could become tricky to handle over the course of a potential primary and general election run. Trump has begun taking steps to try and maneuver that political landscape. At the Council for National Policy summit last weekend at Trump Doral in Miami, he called in to praise the group’s work promoting conservative policies and touted his anti-abortion legacy, according to a recording of the call shared with POLITICO. The call came amid reports that evangelicals and pro-life leaders have been keeping their options open going into the 2024 Republican primary.

“Saturday Night Live” targeted former President Trump’s visit to the town in Ohio where a train derailment has sparked environmental and public health concerns in its latest cold open, mocking Trump’s off-the-cuff public speaking style.
“I’m here and I brought hats, cameras and hats,” the fake Trump, played by James Austin Johnson, said at a podium, clad in Trump’s red “Make America Great Again” hat. “Earlier today, a farmer came up to me, big fella, and he said, ‘Sir, we have nothing to eat because our dirt is poison.’ And I said, ‘Well what are you doing eating the dirt? Don’t eat the dirt folks.’ ”
Trump visited East Palestine, Ohio, last week and used the appearance to blast the Biden administration and Democrats for their response to the train derailment in the town. President Biden drew the ire of Republicans after making a surprise visit to Ukraine last week. Republicans criticized Biden for not making a trip to Ohio.
“I had to come here and see these wonderful people who have been abandoned by Biden,” the fake Trump said in the “SNL” skit. “He’s on spring break in Ukraine with his friend Zelensky.”
The sketch comedy show also took aim at Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who has been in the crosshairs of Republican criticism for months.
“Who do we blame? We blame Buttigieg,” the fake Trump said in the skit. “This was his responsibility. Unfortunately, he was too busy being a nerd and being gay.”
