I think the number of pro-life republicans who don't support (or at least are neutral) at least one of the three exceptions is far smaller than you think.

I agree with you. But this is the platform. This is where you put in the perfect scenario. I agree this would probably not be enacted, but if you feel all life is valued you have to have this as your basis. Implementing law is totally different.

I support the one exception, the life of the mother. Since this is a form of self defense, it is not immoral. However, it is rare in this day and age for obstetricians to have to choose one life over the other. I do not believe rape and incest should be exceptions.

However, there is another question here besides the moral question, and that is this:

Why do Republicans constantly force their Presidential candidates to answer “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” social issue questions? The result is that in order to be nominated, a candidate must publicly prove how conservative he is by taking a position which will prohibit him from being elected. It’s just stupid. The stupid party.

Sure, we want a conservative President, but we should be better at picking up signals when our front runner is needing to focus on the general election.

Here’s an example from one of the debates:

Trump: Repeal and replace Obamacare with a private sector plan.
Moderator: What about poor that can’t afford a plan?
Trump: We wouldn’t let them die on the sidewalk.
Moderator: Who would pay for that?
Trump: The government would take care of those people.
Cruz: So, Donald wants socialized medicine, just like Obamacare.

I say give Trump (and the others) some wiggle room when being forced to answer the gotcha questions from the left. He already said he wanted to appoint someone like Scalia to the SCOTUS, and that is the closest he’ll ever get to influencing abortion policy.

Perhaps, but how many support a grown man showing off his dick in front of little girls in bathrooms? I guess there are no limits liberals insist on us accepting. How much lower do you want me to go?

T**** is supposedly a hero for not being PC. By urinating on the NC bathroom bill, T**** was being as PC as he possibly could, arguing for no standards at all.

He has told us that he will be as PC as he can be in the White House. Well, OK. But T**** is not going to make it that far. His loss in November will be epic. I will help him lose in November with relish.
