His comments appeared to be a shift from June, when he said during a CNN debate, "I will not block it."

The idea of directing the FDA to revoke access to mifepristone is a core policy plan in Project 2025, a 900-plus page document written by conservative groups and organized by the Heritage Foundation that lays out a governing plan for the next GOP presidential administration.

It really doesn't matter what he says for two main reason.

  1. No matter what he says, he's likely lying or going to do the opposite anyways.

  2. He's going to lose. With that being said, VOTE!!!! Volunteer to give rides to those that couldn't vote without it.

I keep seeing this advice, the volunteer ride thing. What's the deal with that? Also I'm in a pretty blue area, so does it really make a big difference?

Every vote counts. By design, it is made more difficult for blue voters to get to a place to vote. Volunteering to drive people to get to vote is just one little thing you can do.

As a non-American I'd politely suggest all Americans assume it could make a difference and not take any chances this time around. The stakes are just too high.
