Let’s talk about Donald Trump’s dance moves. No, not his actual physical gyrations, which, mercifully, most of us haven’t had to witness often. I’m talking about his political dance around the issue of abortion. It’s less of a tango and more of a “Do I step left, right, or just jump off the stage?” kind of dance. And guess what, folks, it’s not winning him any dance competitions—at least, not at the polls.

It’s 2024, and here we are, still talking about Trump. Honestly, I thought by now the only Trump we’d be discussing would be a bridge player who inexplicably shouts “I’m the best!” before playing the wrong card. But no, we’re here to dissect Donald’s waltz, or should I say wobble, on abortion.

Fun Fact: Trump’s position on abortion has been as stable as a Jenga tower set up on a subway train. One minute he’s pro-choice, the next he’s pro-life, and sometimes, it feels like he might go pro-whatever gets me more votes today. It’s all depending on the audience, the weather, and maybe what he had for breakfast.

Now, following the Supreme Court’s decision to rewrite women’s rights history books, Trump has been trying to play both sides. And oh, the acrobatics, folks! On one hand, he’s celebrated by the right as the champion of conservatism for appointing three justices who helped overturn Roe v. Wade. On the other hand, he’s tiptoeing around the massive electoral repercussions this could have among voters who exist outside of a rally setting.

The headline recently screamed – “Donald Trump’s Abortion Problem at the Polls.” Problem? More like a catastrophic, apocalyptic meltdown. Let’s call it what it is! His advisors must be sweating more than a contestant on “Hot Ones” who thought they could “handle the heat.”

During a campaign stop, he’s all about praising the “unborn children” and the next day, he’s suggesting that maybe, just maybe, the decision has been too harsh. “Perhaps we’ve gone too far?” he muses, or as the rest of us call it, “backpedaling faster than a Tour de France racer realizing he’s heading towards a cliff.”

Come on, Donald. Pick a lane! Even GPS systems are less confused about directions. And this flip-flop fiesta has voters scratching their heads. Republicans are miffed. Democrats are outraged. Independents are… well, independent and confused.

Let me get this straight. Trump is kind of like the guy at the party who doesn’t bring anything, eats everything, breaks a chair, then tells everyone how much better the party would be if he hosted it. And just when you think he’s left, he’s outside looking in through the window making comments on how the party went downhill after he left.

His inconsistent, wavering stances could be his undoing—or so we hope. Because, seriously, the thought of a world where our political landscape gets dictated by Trump’s mood swings is scarier than realizing you’re out of coffee on a Monday morning.

As we inch closer to another election — Oh joy, another one! — Trump’s abortion ballet will keep haunting him. Voters have long memories, especially women voters. And let’s face it, if women had a dollar for every time Trump changed his stance on key issues, they’d be funding their own Super PAC.

In the world of Trump politics, every day is a new episode of “Will He or Won’t He?” Spoiler alert: No one knows, probably not even him. The man’s political strategy is like throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing what sticks. Only the spaghetti is overcooked, and the wall is Teflon-coated.

So, as we gear up to what promises to be a circus of an election with Trump possibly at the center ring, keep your popcorn ready. It’s going to be a heck of a show, with twists, turns, and probably a few more dance moves.
