I guess Trump missed the memo.
Kasich too
Not for long.
Cruz has always supported “life of the mother” as an exception. But IIRC, the interpretation is verrrrrry broad.
To be fair they all did!
Dr Bernard Natanson, may he rest in peace, was once an abortionist but became pro life. Remember “The Silent Scream”? He said abortion never “saves a woman’s life”. If need be they induce labor or give a C section, or the rare occasion of ectopic pregnancy, which clinics can’t do, but ripping the baby limb from limp is not saving the woman!
See my post #6
I think that it is the “HEALTH of the mother” that had very broad interpretation.
it’s amazing how the dems say they want gun control but they really mean all guns banned.
too bad we’re not as bright.
if we lost NO babies are helped, and there is no help on the way for at least four more years for them.
Trump says: "Huh? I don't understand. What does this have to do with bankruptcy laws and eminent domain?
And what is this "14th Amendment" thing - 14th Amendment to what?"
As long as there are doctors who don’t take their Hippocratic oaths seriously, that can always be interpreted broadly, because it will always fall to the doctors to determine if a woman’s life is threatened. Just like you can always find a doctor to write you a “medical marijuana” prescription (for a price), you will always be able to find a doctor who will say your life is threatened by a pregnancy (for a price).
Actually, since all the abortion laws are at the state level, the Presidential race only impacts this issue tangentially (like the fight to defund Planned Parenthood).
A new, individual life begins at conception, and it is human.
Yawn. He’s just saying this as RINOs always do during the election cycle. Afterwards it’s back to baby slaughter and the Cheap Labor Express business as usual. Far fewer conservatives are falling for this treacherous crap any longer.
does the pres get to appoint these lawyers that are killing us at the state level or no?
Good for Reince. The platform needs to stay the way it is. I disagree with Trump in this case.
If life begins at conception than all those pills that keep a fertilized egg from attaching to the wall of the womb are no different than an invasive procedure that takes the life of the infant other than being more discrete.
Saying life begins at conception while ignoring the murders that are done quietly with accepted chemical means is pure hypocrisy.
What lawyers? Justice department lawyers?
“Who are we to play God?”
If you don’t want to play God, then you would let nature take its course, and that baby would be born.
