Donald Trump is dominating the early stages of the Republican presidential primary even as he’s refused to endorse a federal ban on abortion, allowing some top rivals to get to the right of him on an issue that animates many conservative activists.

川普在共和黨總統初選的初期階段居主導地位，即使他拒絕支持聯邦禁止墮胎的規定，這也讓一些主要競爭對手，在這個鼓舞許多保守派行動者的問題上，站在他的對立面。

Aiming to return to the White House, the former president often notes how his presidency advanced the cause of abortion opponents. He appointed three conservative Supreme Court justices who helped overturn Roe v. Wade, abolishing the federally guaranteed right to the procedure and fulfilling the decades-long aspirations of anti-abortion activists.

為了重返白宮，這位前總統經常指出總統任期內如何推動反對墮胎者的事業，他任命3位保守派最高法院大法官，他們幫助推翻「羅訴韋德案」，廢除聯邦政府保障的墮胎權，並實現反墮胎行動者數十年來的願望。

But Trump has so far declined to go along with some of his rivals, most notably his onetime vice president, Mike Pence, who is pushing for national bans that would take effect relatively early into a pregnancy. (AP)

但川普迄今為止拒絕與他的一些競爭者立場一致，最著名的是他曾經的副總統彭斯，後者正在推動全國（墮胎）禁令，這些禁令將在相對較早的懷孕階段生效。（美聯社）
