Social media users were confused and outraged when Biden appeared to argue that legal abortion for all three trimesters was not “abortion on demand.”
Many people pointed out that pregnancy only has three trimesters, meaning that he was admitting Roe v. Wade legalized abortion up until birth with few restrictions, which could be considered “on demand.”
Biden has backed some post-viability bans during his Senate career but has also said as president he’d sign legislation that effectively would not allow them.

“I love how Trump now says Biden is for abortion on demand. That’s not true. That’s not what Roe v. Wade said. It said the three trimesters and how it worked,” Biden said.
“See. After three trimesters are over, he is willing to consider some limits,” University of St. Thomas professor David Deavel wrote.
“Biden has backed some post-viability bans during his Senate career but has also said as president he’d sign legislation that effectively would not allow them,” Jim Antle wrote.
There were also comments and jokes made by various individuals about Biden’s statements on abortion.
“Wow, I’d love to see him answer some questions about this. This is NOT what the radical legislation he’s endorsed says,” Fox News’ Guy Benson said.
“Joe Biden’s brain is pudding,” conservative commentator Steve Guest said.
“Aaaand now we now why Biden’s campaign won’t let him do a Super Bowl interview,” Townhall.com writer John Hasson wrote.
