Fox News host Howard Kurtz had to fact-checked former President Donald Trump  following an interview in which he shared an oft-repeated false claim about abortion.

The exchange began during an interview Kurtz conducted with Trump, who is now the presumptive 2024 GOP presidential nominee, in which the host asked if he would support a nationwide abortion ban after 16 weeks of pregnancy, a proposal he has reportedly supported in private, but declined to commit to one way or the other in public.

In response, Trump noted how the three conservative justices he appointed to the Supreme Court—Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett—helped overturn Roe v. Wade in 2022 and the federal abortion protections it provided. He also echoed claims he has made in the past, claiming that his Democratic opponents support abortions "after the baby is born." In the interview, the former president cited remarks made about the notion by former Democratic Virginia Governor Ralph Northam.

"They did and you know, they did something that from a lot of standpoints is extremely good, number one, the Democrats are the radicals on this issue because it's okay to have an abortion in seven, eight, nine months and even after birth," Trump said. "We want to help women with Roe, you take a look at what was going on: abortions in the seventh, eighth, and ninth month. One thing that you say is nobody wants that killing of a baby after the baby's born."

"If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen," Northam said at the time in a radio interview. "The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother."

The clip, however, left out a part where Northam clarified that this would only be done with a severely deformed, nonviable fetus, an infant that was stillborn or would die imminently.
