Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) on Sunday criticized former President Trump for “flip-flopping” on the issue of abortion, after the GOP presidential candidate similarly attacked his opponent, Vice President Harris, for changing her position on fracking.

“Let’s compare a situation where someone changed their position four years ago,” Schiff said on CNN’s “State of the Union,” referring to Harris, “to Donald Trump, who’s changed his position four times on abortion in the last 48 hours.”

“That, to me, is a much more significant question, particularly as, when you’re talking about abortion, and you’re talking about a right and freedom of the American people, to be so pandering, wishy-washy, flip-flopping, you know, so disrespectful of the rights and freedoms of millions of American women and do all that in a single day,” Schiff continued.

“That’s the contrast here. And what’s more, Dana, that’s a values issue,” he added, addressing anchor Dana Bash. “That’s a values issue, when on something like the right to an abortion, you flip-flop every 15 minutes, that shows essentially, he has no values.”
