Trump Dodges Question Over Whether Any Past Partners Had Abortions Asked by Maureen Dowd whether he was ever involved with anyone who underwent procedure, Trump replies simply: ‘Such an interesting question’

Trump’s reply to Maureen Dowd: ‘What’s your next question?’ Martin Pengelly

2 April 2016 The controversy over Donald Trump’s stance on abortion took another turn on Saturday, when a New York Times interviewer wrote that the Republican presidential frontrunner appeared to avoid a question about whether any woman he had been involved with had undergone such a procedure.

Analysis How to stop Donald Trump: women may hold the solution A recent poll found 70% of women had a negative view of the Republican, and the ranks of single women – who tend to vote Democratic – are growing

Maureen Dowd referred to Trump’s suggestion this week that women who have abortions should be punished – a comment he swiftly retracted – when she wrote: “Given his draconian comment, sending women back to back alleys, I had to ask: When he was a swinging bachelor in Manhattan, was he ever involved with anyone who had an abortion?

‘Such an interesting question,’ he said. ‘So what’s your next question?’”

Trump made his initial remark on Wednesday, in an interview with MSNBC host Chris Matthews. Controversy ensued, highlighting the candidate’s extremely poor ratings with female voters of all political stripes.

Sorry Steelfish, this is a PRIME EXAMPLE of a totally inappropriate question. However, I guess that Trump (and Cruz) need to expect such “ambush” questions from a media anxious to destroy enemies of the progressives -— AND BE PREPARED TO POLITELY TELL THEM TO GO “F” THEMSELVES.

So, Steelfish, have you ever been involved with a female who had an abortion?

well he can’t even answer a simple question and shame on the American media for waiting on this to then attack him later on.; As we know they will.
