How do you think the election would have gone if Trump told us prior that he would consider giving Planned Parenthood $500,000,000.00 in 16 months?

That’s right. Just how it’s going to go in 2020. You blind followers have no idea that the voters who say we believe abortion is killing an innocent child mean it.

Empty barrels make the most noise.

President Donald Trump has proposed a fiscal year 2019 budget in which taxpayer dollars would be directed away from the Planned Parenthood abortion business.

Since becoming president, President Trump has taken multiple actions to defund the nation’s biggest abortion company. On his third day in office he reinstated a pro-life policy that revoked tens of millions of dollars from International Planned Parenthood. President Trump has also signed legislation that would help states defund the Planned Parenthood abortion company as well.

Now, President Trump has put forward a budget proposal that would prohibit certain abortion companies like Planned Parenthood from receiving federal funds. That proposal applies to the Title X Family Planning program and Medicaid, as well as other HHS programs.

From page 56 of his budget proposal, comes the following language:

Prohibits Certain Abortion Providers from Receiving Federal Funds.

The Budget includes provisions prohibiting certain abortion providers from receiving Federal funds from HHS, including those that receive funding under the Title X Family Planning program and Medicaid, among other HHS programs.

Weather the budget would be approved by Congress is another story. While pro-life Republicans have repeatedly voted to defund Planned Parenthood they have been thwarted in the Senate by pro-abortion democrats and a handful of proportion Republicans who have been able to stop pro-life Republican leaders from ending debate on a defunding measure and sending it to president Donald Trump’s desk to sign. Trump has promised to sign the legislation if Congress can get enough votes to send it to him.

Leading pro-life organizations are hopeful that the 2018 election cycle will yield a couple of more pro-life votes in favor of defunding Planned Parenthood.

Here is an overview of President Trump’s pro-life record since being elected president.

Within a week of taking office, President Trump reinstated and expanded the Mexico City Policy, which protects $9 billion in foreign aid from being used to fund the global abortion industry and its advocates.

President Trump cut off taxpayer funding for the U.N. Population Fund.
President Trump signed H.J. Res. 43 into law, overturning a midnight regulation by the Obama Administration, which prohibited States from defunding certain abortion facilities in their Federally funded family planning programs.
President Trump expressed strong support for the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which would have stopped late-term abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy—the point at which science tells us that an unborn child can experience pain.

President Trump’s Administration issued guidance to enforce the requirement that taxpayer dollars not support abortion coverage in Obamacare exchange plans.

President Trump rescinded an Obama-era policy that hindered States in their efforts to direct Medicaid funding away from abortion facilities that violate the law or fail to meet relevant standards of care.

In January 2018, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced three major policy changes to protect freedom of religion and the rights of pro-life doctors and nurses, including:
forming a new Conscience and Religious Freedom Division, providing HHS with the focus it needs to more vigorously and effectively enforce existing laws protecting the rights of conscience and religious freedom; and proposing to more vigorously enforce 25 existing statutory conscience protections for Americans involved in HHS programs, protecting Americans who have religious or moral convictions related to certain health care services.

The Trump administration is quietly helping states defund Planned Parenthood Democrats fear anti-abortion advocates are writing Trump’s health care policy — and the results could harm patients nationwide.

We're not blind followers. We simply understant that there's a God d-mn coup on, while those with absolutely no sense of perspective whatsoever wax #NeverTrump over a 6-month spending bill.

Are you a blind opposer? Have you withdrawn your support for President Trump—thus becoming a #NeverTrumper?

If not, then everything's fine. Deplorables have every right to be upset with this GOPe travesty. But abandoning a President who is in the midst of fighting a coup? Ludicrous. Asinine. Laughable.

There are plenty of places for self-indulgent #NeverTrump masturbation. Abandoning the President for signing a 6-month spending bill is not a legitimate option, all things considered.

The President has access to much more information than any of us, and he has earned our trust a dozen times over during the last two years. Even though I might disagree with his decisions at times, I trust his judgement, and am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt long before trusting the judgement of armchair quarterbacks and knee-jerk second-guessers who don't have complete information.

I've seen it time and time again since President Trump assumed office—the latent #NeverTrumpers seize on every opportunity to expose themselves as "sunshine patriots". Anyone who would abandon the President as a result of signing this bill—against the backdrop of a pervasive, ongoing Deep State coup attempt—is simply incapable of seeing the big picture.

President Trump—who was visibly angry at the ceremony—has to pick his battles carefully. Choosing a 6-month spending bill as a hill to die on would have been asinine. Crushing this coup—and having a fully funded military in position to assist, if needed—is magnitudes more important than risking a government shutdown or a crushing veto override.

#NeverTrump is as #NeverTrump does, and anyone who drops their support of President Trump because of butthurt over a short-term spending bill is a de facto #NeverTrumper—by definition.

Opposing this bill—as I did—is woefully insufficient justification to stop supporting President Trump...

You need to brush up on your Constitution.

Only the Congress can allocate money.

But I don't expect rabid anti-Trumpers to know that. They are too blind with hate to read books and learn things.

But that money is for mammograms and pap smears!

Yes, you and I know this is a lie because PP does not do mammograms. But the public does not know this. The narrative has been set.

If you want to destroy PP and its use of federal dollars for abortions, you audit them.

Yes, as a recipient of federal dollars, the US Gov’t has the right to audit Planned Parenthood and they have to account for every penny.

If there is one mistake, they can revoke all federal funding and ban them for misuse.

Of course, the global socialists will just start another organization, but PP will go down in flames.

I am plenty sure that IF Congress had allowed Trump & his staff to actually read what was in that bill, Trump would NOT have signed it.

This is/has been a perfect example of the desperate need for the President to have LINE ITEM VETO powers.

Somebody found in the fine print that money for PLANNED PARENTHOOD cannot be used for abortion.

Plus he is also trying to shut them down for many illegal activities such as SELLING BABY parts (on video).

WINNING....

If POTUS Trump were an absolute monarch, he could do whatever he wants.

Did you take any civics classes when you were young? Ever heard about the 3 branches of the federal government and what they are authorized to do?
