Now that question is completely legitimate...from political position Trump should offer at the more moderate abortion position then Cruz but from the who is the more conservative position Trump offered the more conservative answer so it’s laughable to hear these Cruz supporters now trying to say he’s not conservative because he’s harder line than Cruz on abortion

-------------

What the Cruz side is really saying is they use abortion to suck money out of pro life people but have no intentions of really making it illegal. Trump ruined their scam. Sadly, Trump has no choice but to tow the GOP official line on abortion because banning abortion is as popular as eating anthrax to the American electorate = it pains me to say it as a pro lifer but it is true.

It is not I who did the insulting. And EVERYONE reading every poisoned post that you sprinkle on here is well aware of that fact. It must be unpleasant feeling such a need to be so combative.

Question... what about an abortion where there’s no third party involved it’s just the mother and the child?

I’m quite sure that’s self abortion kits or directions could be provided on the internet.... just like there are suicide kits and directions on the internet...... that becomes a freedom of speech issue

If abortion were made illegal, which I think it should be, then both the so called doctor providing the service AND the abortion seeker should be brought up on murder charges. This issue is and always has been about the victims of abortion, the unborn, not about some dumb trollop who’s knocked up and a so called “provider” that wants to make money off of abortion.

So you choose: you can decide to punish the abortionist and prevent future abortions, or you can decide to punish both the woman and her abortionist and so outrage the public that your bill doesn't pass. Not that it's likely to pass in either case, but your version may not be about saving the unborn child so much as about punishing the "dumb trollop."

#91 a thinking man knowing he was in hostile territory would have simply answered, I don’t answer hypothetical questions, but I disagree with Roe v Wade.

But Donnie is a Liberal at heart so he didn’t’ think he was in enemy territory

Don’t agree? Carson said he is two different people. He told the N.Y. times one thing on the record and another off.

He is telling everyone he is a conservative in public .... what’s the side he is hiding?

This is one of the problems the pro life movement faces. They want to criminalize one side of the conduct only. It is the problem with taking medical issues and politicizing them.

If abortion becomes illegal then all parties must be subject to punishment. Sorry that some folks want to let the prostitite skate or the driver of the get away car but the law doesn’t work like that

This is why single issue voters end up so frustrated

look basic logic tells you that if you contract with somebody to commit a crime.... you’re also guilty of committing the same crime...

you just trying to rationalize it away to say the person that contracted to the crime is not guilty of it...

what about restricted abortions where the woman lied to a legitimate provider about the status...

Say cases where it’s restricted to a case of rape or incest ????

so the woman says yes I was raped or yes it was incest

All she has to do is say that lie and it’s legal?

And she can’t be prosecuted for the lie....

But how can the provider be prosecuted they were lied to????

I see you have a problem with comprehension reading...

“For if a woman is quick with child, and by a potion, or otherwise, killeth it in her womb… this, though not murder, was by the ancient law homicide or manslaughter.”

The woman was held accountable!!!

Actually, Trump’s initial logic is correct.

If something is illegal, then there needs to be a consequence for violation.

But, that’s not true of illegal immigration, either.

#95 Are you going to blame us for Donnie stepping on his Johnson again when he thought he was smart enough to comment on nuclear proliferation today?

How long till he announces he’s flipped on that one? A day or two?

Cruz supporters are as logically consistent on this abortion position

as they are logically consistent on the birther position when it came to Obama vs Cruz

in other words total hypocrites on anything having to do with birth

intellectual honesty is not a strong suit in the Cruz camp

“...so outrage the public that your bill doesn’t pass.”

The hypothetical question assumed abortion was already illegal and implied a Supreme Court reversal of Roe.

No bill or politicizing is required.

Considering hypothetically that abortion is illegal, what penalties would you consider for all participants?

You realize that having no penalties will lead to an ever increasing number of abortions. Pro-life supporters will demand more penalties. Pro-abortion will insist on the decriminalization all abortions for doctor, mother, facilitators.

We will be back to square one, Roe v. Wade or not.

Now, ditto, for pro-life.
