First he states he is in support of Abortion for Rape, Incest and Health of the Mother.
Then Trump was asked about a abortion by a woman being pregnant, and not from rape or incest, and Trump answered that it depends on how far along the baby is.
“It depends when”
INTERVIEWER: “So say a woman is pregnant, and it is not in any of those exceptions [rape/incest]categories, and she chooses to have an abortion” TRUMP: “it depends when, it depends when”
Christians Beware!

Do you have any source on that? If true, it would put more in play than just “I’m evolving on the issue.” People tend to be who they’ve always been. SoCons holding their nose for Trump may find that is not enough to deal with the stench.

I think it’s obvious that anyone who is RILOM is quasi pro-abortion, quasi pro-life.
First off, I'm not a judge of what is in a person's heart, that out of the way. I live on rather humble standards but when I can do something pro-life, even if it is praying about it, outside an abortion mill, I will. If it means a donation from time to time, maybe. This is what I'm curious about Trump, with that money, if he gave to the Clinton Charity, you would have thought he could have given some to other charity projects, maybe pro-life organizations. Maybe he did and we will find out but I do think it could be important. Maybe he has given to Christian organizations.
I think it is obvious that Trump is pro-abortion, since he thinks that abortion is OK, depending on how far along a woman is.
Evidently his revelation in 2011 at age 65, as he was preparing to run for president as a republican, and only 2 years after he had left Obama’s democrat party, was only against full term abortion.
Donald Trump became a democrat after the 2000 election, the Democrat party of 2001 through 2009, which consisted of Al Gore, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Ted Kennedy, and Harry Reid, and he disliked Reagan, and Bill Clinton is his favored president.
You are not reporting accurately what was said in that conversation, so it’s pointless to discuss with you.
BEYOND that, any position that includes any kind of acceptance of any abortion could be said to be pro-abortion.
Accepting abortion only for rape/incest/life of mother (RILOM) is still a pro-abortion position.
It is also a quasi pro-life position in that it denies abortion except in those instances.
Many will take issue with grouping ‘life of mother’ under pro-abortion, but I do so for technical reasons. For even that procedure legally to take place, the practice of abortion must be legally permitted.
I am accurately reporting what was said in that interview.
You are trying your best to cover for Trump’s support for elective abortion.
Q: So say a woman is pregnant and it’s not in any of those exception categories and she chooses to have an abortion?
Trump: It depends when. It depends when. It depends when.
logic dictates you take a law that has these “exceptions” and then keep going.
You win by increments.
(how does one eat a buffalo? one bite at a time.)
So, I say that Trump’s position is pro-abortion, and that means I’m covering for him. You are so insistent on ‘winning’ or something, Ansel, that you come across as a goofball.
You are NOT accurately reporting the conversation, because I could tell you that Trump was interrupted, but then immediately said he believed abortion was only acceptable within his 3 exceptions.
If you’re honest you’ll say that’s so. If you don’t say so, others can look at the video and see that you’re wrong.
Please be more honest in your claims, I didn’t say that you won’t give up the ground on the Rape and Incest abortions, but you ARE covering for him being for elective abortions as long as they fall in whatever time period that he thinks abortion is acceptable in.
If you are honest, then you will look at the question, and the answer.
Q: So say a woman is pregnant and it’s not in any of those exception categories and she chooses to have an abortion?
Trump: “It depends when. It depends when. It depends when.”
And WHAT comes AFTER that comment in the video?
I take it you’re voting for Rick Santorum?
“Conservatives” (or so they claim to be) had no problem trading the life if a baby for a win with a guy that personally funded their death so I don’t imagine “conservatives’ (or so they claim to be) will have any issue with this at all.
Because thats exactly what many millions did. Fortunately some are smart enough to realize their error. Others intend to compound it for the cost of more dead babies. ‘No Matter What”.
Call me crazy but that’s some pretty greater ‘lesser evil’.
The same thing that came at the beginning, a dishonest talking point, that he clearly doesn’t believe.
What do you think “Depends when” means, before he catches himself and returns to his rote line?
Q: So say a woman is pregnant and it’s not in any of those exception categories and she chooses to have an abortion?
Trump: “It depends when. It depends when. It depends when.”
From Rand Paul, to Donald Trump, why do you defend these pro-abortion candidates so vehemently?
Why do you say that?
Do you think that Santorum is the only pro-life candidate?
We’re heading out to Comic-Con. I’ll respond later.
You have again failed to report what actually transpired. That’s the only way you get to tell the story your way.
No xzins, I am quoting Trump in the interview, and his obvious support for abortion, but just as with Rand Paul, you are adamantly arguing to defend him.
Trump wanted to simply say, I’m pro-life, that’s it, but the interviewer dug farther.
Q: So say a woman is pregnant and it’s not in any of those exception categories and she chooses to have an abortion?
Trump: “It depends when. It depends when. It depends when.”
Are you saying that the interview ends when Trump says “It depends when.”?
Is that your position?
LOL,
I am saying that he revealed his pro-abortion beliefs in stating what he believes.
Every politician has talking points, but when an interviewer gets him to reveal his actual position on video, then we have that information.
Why is your position to always seek to cover for the pro-abortion views of Rand Paul and Donald Trump?
