I agree with Quin Hillyer. Donald Trump’s comments on abortion — first advocating punishing women who abort then backtracking hours later — were indeed a “mess.” They played into the hands of abortion advocates in every way — helping caricature pro-lifers as “anti-woman” and raising the specter of back-alley abortions. So far, Trump’s pro-life conversion has mainly served to make Planned Parenthood look good (he can’t stop praising the nation’s largest abortion provider) and the pro-life movement look bad. He simply has no idea how to talk about arguably the most sensitive issue in politics.

Legal abortion is older than I am. Either this will change in the next 4 years or we should drop anti-abortion as a party platform. Pro-lifers must admit they can’t win and leave the party alone. Abortion will be legal till Jesus returns - I am pro life but that is the fact.
Americans are conflicted on abortion so Trump’s answer mirrors the American psyche. Reinforces Trump as the tribune of the people.

TRUMP WORSE THING FOR PRO-LIFERS SINCE ROE vs WADE...
Awesome testimony. What folks don’t understand is you can build a wall to keep the riff raff out, but it can’t protect you from the corruption within. If God doesn’t bless a nation, they’ve got nothing, no candidate promises mean a hill of beans, and the nation’s worst enemy will turn out to be that man in the mirror. God will not let this murder go on indefinitely.

He is already doing damage to the pro-life cause and to conservatism - but I think that is probably his goal.
I don’t beleive it. We have had 8 years of omanation, and yet clinics are being shut down.
Now Trump may not have the proper attitude about Planned Abortionhood, but he would be much better and more sympathetic than ANY democrap.
I have. I got cursed at a few times and spat at once. {shrug} Not too much different than street evangelism on the 3rd street promenade in Santa Monica.
