Former President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he would "protect" women "whether the women like it or not," a comment the Harris campaign immediately pounced on.

Trump said at his rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, that his "people" previously told him they did not think he should say that he wanted to "protect the women of our country," comments he has previously made on the campaign trail.

"I said, 'Well, I’m going to do it, whether the women like it or not,'" Trump said. "I’m going to protect them."

Vice President Kamala Harris and her campaign quickly highlighted his comments on X.

"Donald Trump thinks he should get to make decisions about what you do with your body," Harris said in a post. "Whether you like it or not."
