Trump Praises His Sister, a Pro-Abortion Extremist Judge by Ramesh Ponnuru August 27, 2015

Donald Trump told Mark Halperin yesterday that his sister, a federal judge, would be a “phenomenal” Supreme Court justice. He also said that “we will have to rule that out now, at least.” If he ever becomes president, let’s hope he rules it out permanently. Maryanne Trump Barry came up in my book The Party of Death for writing one of those heated judicial decisions in favor of giving constitutional protection to partial-birth abortion.

She called a New Jersey law against it a “desperate attempt” to undermine Roe v. Wade. It was, she wrote, “based on semantic machinations, irrational line-drawing, and an obvious attempt to inflame public opinion instead of logic or medical evidence.” It made no difference where the fetus was when it “expired.”

So: The right of abortionists to make a child “expire” by partially extracting her from the womb, sticking scissors in the back of her head, vacuuming out her brain, and crushing her skull to complete her extraction, is right there in the Constitution. But let’s please not have any “semantic machinations.

I don't care. Things are in the crapper. The Republicans have demoralized and bankrupted the nation with the help of the Establishment Republicans. At least we now have the wild card Trump.

So, we’re left with Trump and Cruz to gamble on.

Exactly! No one can predict what kind of President any of them will be but I'm locked into Trump because I've seen a preview of these others. Trust me, we don't want to see the movie.

Good. Lose the election with pious minded “he’s not a True Conservative” garbage. Afterward, you can say “ i was true to my Conservative ideals”.
Wake up. America is finished unless a Trump/Cruz ticket takes over.

It is almost like you “not a high minded Conservative” folks want just fold! Who else can win now? Think about it. Who else and what other ticket can win?

Trump/Cruz pulls crossovers, independants and true conservatives. Without that, RNC cannot win. There is nothing a “true conservative can say that will pull enough votes to take the Presidency. The deck is stacked. The only way conservatives can win it is with Trump/Cruz. That is all.

I think we need to prepare for real nasty. “They” want Trump out, or dead, it seems.

These hit pieces keep coming and if you don't like (name whatever candidate but particularly Trump at this point), just take the author's word for whatever they say.

This author's wife works for Jeb's campaign ... and he was too busy trying to smear Trump that he either didn't research the ruling or he ignored it as not fitting the narrative.

“I think we need to think carefully, folks.”

Nah.. it’s all about liking his words. Trump’s background doesn’t matter to his followers.

You DO realize Trump knows this laundry will come up, don’t cha? That might explain why he is out in front of it. You find it in Campaigning 101.
