True enough.
But Trump is quite likely to fill more than one SCOTUS position. And I have no doubt that his administration will be looking at existing regs for possible changes, and that he will support Congressional efforts that can also limit abortion within the bounds of existing law.
Trump himself is not that much of a religious crusader. But Pence sure is, and I expect Trump to give him the lead on this.
