If you want to see it for yourself, here's a video starting about 6:15 and going at 7:15. He keeps digging a hole. He says that he's sure they do some things properly and good. (6:41)

He alsowon't say life from the moment of conception. He also revalidates that he likes the exceptions of "rape, incest, or life and health"

There are some very questionable statements from Trump. During the debate, I believe he said that the single payer healthcare works well for Canada and Europe??

I support Ted Cruz’s position on the matter.

However, it should be noted that trump’s position is at least harsher than the GOP’s position on PP. They support all of it, and will fund all of it.

The GOPe media is cracking me up. Oh noes. Trump said he wanted to defund abortion but take a look at some good things that they may do for women. (The statement is actually a political winner.)

Same GOPe that never wants to even mention abortion.

Same GOPe that has never defunded Planned Parenthood and actually had the power to.

Same GOPe that adores the Bushes (yet W would not even sign a petition in 2000 to defund Planned Parenthood if elected and Jeb sits on a board connected to PP).

Spare me the fake outrage.

There are some good aspects of PP, but then again, Hitler apparently got the trains to run on time. When my wife and I were very young and poor, PP provided free birth control (NOT abortions). At the time, I remember how they said every baby should be planned. Ideally, that’s true. However, any number of other organizations could provide free birth control. PP pushes abortion. The evil they do far outweighs the good in my mind, plus I don’t think government should be in the charity business. If PP is so good, let the leftists support it with private donations.

He made a very poor statement there. He showed he does not understand that government funding cannot go for abortion NOW. But by funding they have the doors open and can do abortions so makes no difference.

He gave them fuel now!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, I see. So an evil organization does do some "good things" so it should continue to receive taxpayer funding vs. giving that money (if it is to be given) that can provide the same services minus the evil activities as well.

What a joke. Trump has praised single-payer healthcare in Canada and elsewhere saying it "works well", gave a stern lecture to conservatives about "taking care of everyone" ("get used to it, conservatives!" as though conservatives want everyone to die), among other things - and now defends Planned Parenthood and wins the praises of this evil organization. And you all defend even this...

They don’t do much besides killing babies. Well, they do promote risky sex to kids in public schools I guess

Good play. TY

BTW, the GOPe and the GAME CHANGE people got together to pile on Sarah Palin. The company that did PR on GAME CHANGE was SDKKnickerbocker.

Same people who are doing the current Planned Parenthood PR campaign!

This is a Uniparty attack on Trump.

Trump agreeing with the GOPE is a GOPE attack on Trump.

That is some weird logic

All the rich leftists need to put up. If they think handing out freebies is a good thing, let THEM pay for it. The abortion acolytes love Planned Parenthood? Why can’t the abortionists support it with their own $$$?

If something is worth doing, charity wise, why does “charity” for these folks always mean making taxpayers pay?

Now that he is leading in the polls, he probably thinks that he can be less of a "campaign conservative".

As long as he gave it to Megyn Kelly, Graham, and that univision guy, everything is ok.

Yep. The irony is the GOPe actually wants its candidates to sound like Trump on this issue (pro life & pro woman), if anyone has followed politics for the past 15 years.

But because it's Trump they have to act outraged. It's all a game.

Summed up nicely here...

And we wonder why people are deeply alienated from politics? First, let’s just tell the truth: Approximately 98 percent of the professional politicians, pundits, and consultants embroiled in the conversation over Trump’s comments about Kelly, in which he may or may not have said that her tough questions at Thursday’s GOP debate were due to menstruation, are most assuredly not “offended” or “outraged” by his words. Quite the opposite: In the political world, there is something like an electric shock of glee that passes through the community when someone says something “outrageous.”

Controversy is energizing. Consultants, candidates, and pundits immediately begin working the angles — how can they exploit the latest gaffe, the latest misstatement, the latest offense against decency to advance their candidate or their cause? Outrage is a tool, the means to accomplish the ends of personal and political advancement.

-— “extreme positions that are way too far outside the mainstream for even him to take.” -—

This is exactly why I have no interest in the Donald.

Trump said he is Pro-Life in the same way Ronald Reagan was Pro-Life.

Not the same as the GOPe.

Ping.

"There are some good aspects of PP, but then again, Hitler apparently got the trains to run on time."

Interesting, that you brought that up.

Greg Moore, who replaced him as AFP’s New Hampshire director, said his old boss excels at the “blocking and tackling” of political agitation.

“He always made sure the ‘i’s are dotted and ‘t’s are crossed,” said Moore. “I assure you the trains will run on time.”
