New York Times reporter and longtime Donald Trump observer Maggie Haberman suggested the former president and current GOP nominee “would welcome” the claim from his wife, former first lady Melania Trump, in her new memoir that she is in favor of abortion rights.

Donald addressed his wife’s stance in an interview with FOX News ’ Bill Melugin, which aired Oct. 3., soon after The Guardian’s reporting. When Melugin asked what the former President thought when he read the book, he replied that he told his wife to “write what [she] believe [s].”
