ATLANTA (AP) — First lady Jill Biden is warning that returning Donald Trump to the White House would threaten women who already have watched the former president’s Supreme Court picks nix a federal right to abortion services. The first lady opened a weekend tour of general election battleground states in Georgia. She told a friendly audience in Atlanta that President Joe Biden has put women at center of his agenda. She said Donald Trump, on the other hand, has spent decades tearing women down, mocking their bodies and devaluing their place in society. It was an unusually aggressive approach for the first lady and previews an important role she could play in a long general election campaign.
