Did I say “Over abortion”?
Trump is right. You have an abortion that is illegal. Go to jail. We need trump as President ASAP!
Good grief. Trump may be doing a batter job of getting across the fact abortion is an act of murder than wimpy pro-lifers.
it might hurt us at the polls.
I don’t know.
but at least we’ll know what our country is if our nominee says exactly what conservatives want and we lose.
let’s get it out In the open.
This thread is about abortion. Then why do you imply his negative rating would get worse?
Why would a pro-lifer cringe?
Unless they just love calling themselves pro life so they can feel morally superior, then what is their issue here?
Does he have any pro-life credentials? I happen to agree with him but I think he’s just giving fuel to the leftists. This will only help Hillary.
I think part of the problem is we assume more people are “conservative” than not. I, in my heart, don’t think that is true.
When you promote pro-life out one side of your mouth while promoting pro-abortion out of the other side, then you win votes from both pro-lifers and pro-abortioners.
This is regardless that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for abortion purposes.
“I happen to agree with him but I think he’s just giving fuel to the leftists. “
So why bother then?
Not if he can articulate the position properly.
If abortion is an act of murder, a woman should be punished. If not, the implication is that an unborn doesn't have or deserve an equal right to life because it isn't equal to born human beings.
“Is abortion an act of murder or not?”
It sure is.
“If so, why should a woman be able to kill her unborn child without being punished?”
I think abortion providers and women who murder babies should be punished. However millions of other voters disagree with that position. Many of them hold that position because its what they’ve been taught. Our schools have largely taught a pro-abortion position from grade school through College for 40 years.
In Biblical terms its throwning seed down on stone. You have to soften the heart before they can hear the message.
Do you want to be right or do you want to stop abortion?
socially and economically? no. we’re not the majority if both are included in the definition of conservative.
the media took care of that over 50 years.
“Not if he can articulate the position properly.”
He won’t be given a chance too. He certainly didn’t in this interview.
Why bother what?
First, he was asked a hypothetical question that if abortion was outlawed, should women who have an abortion be punished....
The only answer is yes, otherwise it isn’t a law....
Second, he never praised Planned Parenthood abortions, he only stated that the women’s health side provides valuable health services.....but that he doesn’t agree with the abortion services and would work to defund it....
Heck since this election cycle started I’ve seen longtime freepers supporting Planned Parenthood.
Never thought I’d see that.
You are so full of crap.
