8/11/15 John Nolte
During an interview with CNN Tuesday morning, Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump stated that he was open to the idea of continuing to fund Planned Parenthood with federal tax dollars.
“The problem that I have with Planned Parenthood is the abortion situation. It is like an abortion factory, frankly,” Trump said. “And you can’t have it. And you just shouldn’t be funding it. That should not be funded by the government, and I feel strongly about that.”
... But certainly the abortion aspect of it should not be funded by government, absolutely.”

...that’s good...I’ve also heard the blocking fullback and the ball carrier tailback analogy.....
Nolte is openly a Trump hater
Why did you change the headline?
You can show where most conservatives talk about “the good” that PP does, and that we should fund it? I see the opposite. For a long time, conservatives have said you can’t split funds off for different purposes. And since conservatives don’s usually endorse massive social programs, I find your argument hard to believe.
We hate the GOP Establishment BECAUSE they’ve destroyed the country.
What is it about the Uniparty you don’t understand?
There are probably good reasons to object to his solution, but I simply can't get all worked up over this response.
BTW Trump will get bored and eventually drop out. Then everyone with their panties in a bunch about his candidacy today will feel kinda silly. IMO.
No, he isn't. What you are describing is a Schwarzenegger. Trump's whole career is based on political cronyism. But his campaign strategy is based on reality TV hype tactics. But at heart he's a liberal, he just has a few crib notes to say for conservatives, but when someone pushes him deepers, he doesn't know what to say.
BTW Trump will get bored and eventually drop out.
Yes, I agree, he will. But in the meantime, he is squeezing what little remains of Reaganism out of the party. He's converting conservatives to liberals. He's dealt a blow to Cruz, that will probably be fatal. It's time someone stood up to him.
Because your statement above is snarky, stupid, off topic and emotional, I am going to totally destroy you intellectually. First, I fully understand the uni-party - I was on this issue in 92 which I suppose is a minimum of 15 years before you were. I am published on this very damned topic, including my best seller below. Note it was first and third at same time, a rare double (print version and kindle, in whatever order).
Second, we were talking about fungibility, and you obviously don't have a damned clue what it means and why it means that Trump is fine to pay for murder, as long as we use accounting tricks to say we're not paying for murder. WHAT EFFEN PARTY of baby murder do YOU not understand, in addition to your blithering ignorance on fungibility.
Trump’s a liberal who flip-flopped on the abortion issue much closer to the primary than even Romney did.
To think Trump is “one of us” would be a grave error.
You don’t give money to Hitler with his assurances that it will only be used for good things and none will be spent on concentration camps.
Yes, why does taxpayer money need to go to directly funding a health care provider? If you want health care, pay for it yourself or get health insurance. Even if you allow for Medicaid or some other government-run health care program, it’s up to you to take that money and go to whatever service provider you want. Why in the world does the government need to fund a health care provider when they should be funded by the customers who choose to go there and buy their services?
I don't think Trump understands the nuances of how the GOPe and Karl Rove have managed to keep Planned Parenthood running throughout the “pro-life” Bush Administration and through Obama’s term.
Nor do I think Trump understands the details as to how Planned Parenthood is deceitfully funded now or then. But this article I've posted addresses some of the deception: http://www.wnd.com/2008/10/79317/ Bush's 2.2 Billion Dollar Gift To Planned Parenthood
Do you understand how Rove got outed by Tea Partier Karen Handel in late 2011, calling the shots about PP with the executives at Susan G Komen?
If so, ‘splain away.
And if you believe Clinton and Bush were tag teaming for the Uniparty in ‘92, I'd love to see evidence of it. Seriously.
I know H.W. Bush was busy diss’ing his boss to that old KGB meister Gorbachev right after Reykjavik in 1987, but that takes the concept of Uniparty to a global scale — and I still can't get my mind wrapped around why Bush would take shots at conservatives and Reagan to the leader of the USSR at the height of the Cold War.
But if you've written on all of this stuff, seriously, enlighten me.
Meanwhile, Trump is doing the heavy lifting to destroy the Uniparty. So what if he's an imperfect blind man, as long as he pulls down the Temple walls?
I just remembered what Nolte did some months ago. He repeated a Karl Rove line about Tea Party being unelectable because Todd Aiken was Tea Party (or some strange thing like that).
I still can’t remember the GOPe meme exactly, because it was so insane, but it was something Karl Rove has said, a lot. Something about how Christine O Donnell and Todd Aiken represent the failure of Tea Party.
Nolte was blindly repeating some Rove talking points, and it caught my attention.
So you wrote about how Karl and the GOPe threw the ‘12 election to Obama for the sake of Uniparty unity, so they could keep using Obama as their front man-destroyer?
Did you get into the fifteen second Trump bid for the presidency in April of 2011, and how Obama had to shoot Trump down at the WHC dinner?
(The fact Trump was a threat to Obama in 2011 tells me he’s not a fraud and a complete threat to the Uniparty)
The anti-Trump faction of the GOPe here on FR seem to want to destroy Trump because of what they think Trump SHOULD know about PP funding, rather than what Trump is actually saying.
What Trum’s actually saying is he’s Pro Life, with exceptions, and does not think abortion funding should be happening at PP.
Again, I’m not in love with Donald Trump, but all of this GOPe pushback makes him look like my Dream Date. Why is all this anti Trump energy being exerted, except that Trump is a terrible, terrible problem for the GOPe agendas?
Memo to Sontagg.....KARL ROVE IS NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT.....KARL ROVE IS NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT.....KARL ROVE IS NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT.....TRUMP IS, AND HE JUST SAID IT’S OKAY (IN EFFECT) TO GIVE PLANNED PARENTHOOD MONEY AS LONG AS THEY CLAIM ITS OTHER MONEY THEY USE TO BUTCHER FULLY GROWN BABIES FOR PARTS.
AMEN JEDI....Amen.
I'm not accusing you of anything; I don't know you, I haven't read your stuff. (”I should have read” - what article?)
Rove runs the GOPe 2016 Jeb campaign: http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2015/08/09/gope-2016-road-map-to-victory-tree-house-challenge/
You are pretending Trump knows all the trickery and deceit with Planned Parenthood funding so you can attack him as pro-abortion. Why?
