experience something today that we can all experience together as a country. truly a spectacular day, and i thank all of our abc crews and partners at national geographic for our special event this afternoon. we'll have much more later here. but we do move on now to the other major news this monday night, and to the race for the white house. after donald trump repeatedly celebrated the overturns of roe versus wade with help from the justices here appointed to the supreme court, what he's now saying about a nationwide abortion ban tonight. the biden campaign pouncing. here's rachel scott. >> reporter: tonight, after months of hinting he would support a national abortion ban, now donald trump declaring the matter should be left up to individual states. >> the states will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both. and whatever they decide must be the law of the land. in this case, the law of the state. >> reporter: just last month, trump said he was leaning toward supporting a national ban at around 15 weeks. >> the number of weeks now,

people are agreeing on 15, and i'm thinking in terms of that. >> reporter: but now, a reversal. today, trump made it clear politics was at the heart of his decision, keenly aware abortion rights has won in all six states where it has appeared on the ballot. including in conservative states like kansas, kentucky, and ohio. >> you must follow your heart of this issue. but remember, you must also win elections. >> reporter: tonight, president biden pointing out 21 states have abortions. >> reporter: biden's campaign seizing on trump's false new claim that both sides of the abortion debate were happy when the supreme court overturned roe. >> i was proudly the person responsible for the ending of something that all legal scholars, both sides, wanted, and in fact demanded, be ended. roe v. wade, they wanted it ended. >> reporter: today, vice president harris firing back. >> he's proudly responsible that

1 in 3 women of reproductive age now live in a state with an abortion ban? if he were to be put back in a position where he could sign off on a law, he would sign off on an national abortion ban. >> reporter: the biden campaign reminding americans trump often boasted of appointing the justices who overturned roe, taking away a woman's right to choose. tonight, warning voters not to be fooled. trump says he supports exceptions for rape, incest, and to save the life of the mother. he won't say about health of the mother. david? >> david: rachel, thank you. there is another breaking headline tonight involving donald trump. late today, a new york appellate court denying trump's last-minute attempt to delay his first criminal trial now set to begin one week from today. the judge issuing a one-line ruling, writing, "defendant's application for a stay of trial pending the determination of motion for change of venue is denied." trump's lawyers wanted a stay while they attempt to move the hush money case out of manhattan, arguing overwhelming
