I’m asking you your take on the obvious facts of the matter. And you’re avoiding answering this crucial question, because you know the truth, and you know that if you admit to the truth, you will have lost this debate. It’s as simple as that.

I'm giving you my take. You want me to tell you I believe a baby in the womb is a person, so that you can then tell me I must support your interpretation of the Constitution.

That means we're going to sit here and decide what the Constitution means between us, according to what we understand the words to mean to us right now. That's "living document" textualism.

I told you right up front, I'm an originalist. If you can't tolerate that, say so and we'll leave it at that and you can play your bullshit word games with somebody else.
