34 week is way too late. Babies can feel pain at about 15-16 weeks.
You’re a barbarian.

“After Trump’s ineffective and dangerous vax’s, I will have a hard time getting behind him if he doesn’t stop the baby murdering.”

How do you feel about DeSantis legalizing abortion before 6 weeks? Is that not baby murdering?

Trump is playing this right. States' rights is the way to go.

Trump is one man. The Death Penalty was illegal back in the '70s. Then it became legal again.

Likely, the same thing will happen again with abortion. There will be a case brought to the SCOTUS because somebody in Alabama did not get her abortion. So the SCOTUS will announce that she will be able to do that because they will bring back Roe vs Wade.

Bill Clinton said abortion should be safe legal and rare.

There is no reason to believe DeSanctis or any other of the Republican candidates has any more backbone than Pence. At least Trump has shown he will fight the deadly enemy of no only unborn, but the country, the Democrat party and the globalists. DeSanctis, in particular , having drawn support of quislings like Paul Ryan, is at least as phony as Pence.

You dip. Trump was criticizing a state statute.

Trump was criticizing DeSantis. Whatever bill DeSantis might have signed, Trump would have complained.

But Trump is saying he’d negotiate a federal law

'The key arguments against abortion are based on strong religious belief.'

Not at all. The idea is based on our founding that we have unalienable rights, and one of those is life, and that is protected. Either life begins at conception, or some other timeline depending on your political beliefs.

He should have correctly identified this issue as one for states to decide. SCOTUS was clear on that. And he’s not running for governor.

It seems to be the nevertrumper/uniparty supporting/desantis supporters that are pushing Trump for a federal abortion ban...

When most republicans acknowledge that abortion isn’t in the constitution, thus a state right.

And people seem to forget that desantis signed a no exception 15 week abortion ban last year....

I guess he needed to drop it to 6 weeks, to be ‘special’

I’m sticking to my old outlook which is do I want to rationalize killing babies when I meet my Maker? Absolutely not.

LOL....

I didn’t know you could read minds...

So you know Trump was thinking of a federal law?

What if he was thinking of something for state laws, which would be following the constitution...

Or did you want to imply Trump would go against the constitution to smear him, like you have been doing?

What about ECTOPIC pregnancies, which KILL both mother and child, if no abortion is allowed?

There will always be rapes, there will always be murders, so should we make them legal, too? Heck, every law gets broken so let’s forget about having laws! What an assinine argument.

Me either.

Trump first called the “Heartbeat” bill “too harsh,” and now he’s actually saying that the “Heartbeat” is “a terrible thing.”

This man was never pro-life and will never get the pro-life vote.

I think some people are conflating their personal or religious views of abortion with the politics of abortion.

Politically we are not going to ban abortion in this country.

Then the question becomes what should be done about abortion within our political system.

The vast majority of people in this country ,including state legislators and members of Congress ,do not want to ban ban abortion.

So then the question becomes where do we draw lines on abortion, politically.

And I think we should all be clear that we’re talking about the political issue of abortion. I think just about all people on Free Republic are against abortion and would prefer that abortion did not happen.

But in the political environment we live in, how do we translate those of views to legislation and or court rulings, to restrict abortion in the manner we might prefer.

So then you were back to how do we navigate abortion politically.

And if the woman discovers she’s pregnant after 6 weeks and still wants an abortion, she can hightail it to a state like NY or CA so she can kill her baby legally. This is a states rights issue and no political candidate should give a number because it’s not up to the feds now.

I started two times to write about ectopic pregnancy.. But with the witches for Duh-Saintis out in full force, I thought better of posting. Already getting falsely accused of being a cultist and worshipping President Trump. I am familiar with two cases… And yes, somebody will die with or without an abortion.
