"Focusing on late-term abortions is always an interesting strategy. And certainly, if one really wanted to reduce abortion, it is the wrong strategy, as only 1.3 percent of abortions happen at or after 21 weeks."

"We can’t and shouldn’t count on Trump for facts about abortion. Let’s set the record straight on later-term abortions, meaning those at or after 21 weeks. There are three reasons women seek later-term abortions: health of the mother, personal reasons, and fetal anomalies (birth defects).
The only type of abortion that happens anywhere near nine months is for fetal anomalies
The only type of abortion that does happen after 24 weeks is for fetal anomalies. Most abortions for fetal anomalies happen before 24 weeks, but a very small percentage happen later than that. The abortions that take place later do so because it takes time to do the ultrasounds and genetic testing. Sometimes a fetal MRI may even be needed."
