Peggy Drexler : Donald Trump and Sen. JD Vance are in denial that abortion is no longer a big factor in the 2016 election.

She says the GOP is out of step with voters' views on Roe vs. Wade , immigration, crime and crime are the keys to crushing Democrats , she says.

She writes: Trump needs to show focus, discipline and coherence and stop the incessant attacks on Kamala Harris .

The GOP should be winning this election, but that won't work, she writes, because it's not working.

Abortion protections are literally on the ballot in at least eight states so far, and related ballot measures could be approved in up to 11 .

Trump and the GOP should be quaking at the prospect of reproductive-rights voters.

In an eye-popping new poll of 3,901 reproductive-age women, 74% opposed leaving abortion up to the states.
