Trump boasts about ending Roe v Wade in video setting out views on abortion: Live

Donald Trump has released a video on Truth Social announcing his policy on abortion.

He boasted about being responsible for ending Roe v Wade, made false claims about the Democrats’ position on the subject, and said that he supported IVF, something some Republicans have recently begun to oppose.

Meanwhile, the Trump campaign has claimed that they raised $50.5m during a fundraiser at the Palm Beach, Florida mansion of hedge fund manager John Paulson on Saturday night, almost double the amount raised by last month’s Biden campaign fundraiser featuring three presidents, which raised $26m.

Mr Trump spoke to the 117 guests in the backyard of the home for about 45 minutes after joining them for pictures following his arrival, according to a campaign spokesperson.

Ahead of the event on Saturday, Mr Trump wrote on Truth Social at 4pm: “Biggest night in Fund Raising of ALL TIME!!! Will double up the Biden number of last week at Radio City. People are desperate for change. They want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

This comes after Mr Trump suffered legal setbacks in both his Florida and Georgia cases on Thursday.
