Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism. It's the reason why he's gone after comedians (and any of his perceived "political enemies" that he holds a grudge against). I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon.

Since the Supreme Court’s ruling in June, doctors, patients and state officials across the country have scrambled to navigate the new abortion bans and especially, they say, the murkiness surrounding exemptions. Complicating matters is a patchwork of new legislation that is often temporarily suspended because of legal fights.
More than a dozen states ban abortion from conception or within the first several weeks of pregnancy. Most of those bans include narrow exceptions to save the life of the pregnant woman or allow abortion in cases in which the fetus has a fatal medical condition. But interpreting those exceptions properly is an emerging issue for doctors and hospitals, who fear hefty fines and prison sentences if they get it wrong.
That has made some hospitals reluctant to treat miscarriages with procedures also commonly used in abortions. Other hospitals have created special groups of doctors and lawyers to help interpret new laws and decide when a pregnancy can be legally terminated. Some states require two doctors to sign off on an abortion that meets the legal standard.

In theory, clinics within federal enclaves that are under the federal government's control, could provide a loophole for abortion access in states with restrictive abortion laws in place. However, in practice, legal experts say placing and operating abortion services on federal lands is complicated.
