I appreciate the civility. I will attempt to document his five positions on abortion. I will start that he is ProLife. 1) Trump maintains he is most ProLife candidate in the race. He's campaigning. What's wrong with this?

2) Trump States women should be punished who have abortions Only if abortion was made illegal. Obviously today, that is not the case

3) Trump says issue is unclear and be left to the States Wasn't the argument that it should be a States right issue. What's wrong with this?

4) Trump now reverses position and says the woman is the victim and should not be punished Here we agree. Wish he would of stayed true to his first position. He may have if the 'pro-lifers' didn't jump down his throat.

5) Trump then says laws are set on abortion and need to stay that way Of course they are. Only a Constitutional Amendment will change anything at this point. GWB had both Houses of Congress for 12 years, so by all means pile on Trump.

6) Trump then said that he would work too change the laws Aren't we all? We can push to amend the Constitution.

So as someone who has worked for decades to support the unborn, do you see why many of us are concerned with his ever changing position?

I see hate Trump for anything (I'm don't direct that at you, just in general). He's not polished and I don't see that as an impediment. But we can keep electing slick politicians that have all the right answers since that has worked so well in the past.

The problem I have with Trump's changing positions on ProLife issues, is he has not really thought through these.

If you are ProLife and, without knowing who said it, you read Trumps position on Life, and also read Ted's, Marco even Mitt's, my guess is you would prefer Trumps position(s) the least.

You are a Trump supporter and you will do anything to defend his positions. That is natural most supporters of candidates do the same thing.

To me there are a few positions that are not negotiable. One being the Life issue. If Ted Cruz had went through these verbal gymnastics on abortion, I assure you, he would have already dropped out, as his support would have evaporated.
