If abortions are illegal, then women who have them have broken the law, and deserve to be prosecuted, and any men involved in the decision do as well.

He was right about that.

There isn't a single pro-life organization that agrees with that assessment. If you do, than you're an extremist and not a true pro-lifer.

Donald Trump doesn’t speak for the pro-life movement.

"Serious members of the pro-life movement would affirm that while they wish to make abortion illegal, they seek to do so in order to save unborn children and to legally recognize the dignity of unborn human life — not to punish women. Indeed, the movement has historically opposed punishing women who have abortions, noting that women who face unintended pregnancy are often under stress and that the goal of the pro-life movement is to make abortion not the only answer....

"And true to form, he has since reversed his position after swift and corrective criticism from pro-life groups. But the fact that he would go further and say that men should bear no responsibility for abortion decisions makes it clear that it is neither concern for women nor even the fate of children that influences his views."
