“It depends when.”

Trump's responses were ambiguous. My understanding is that when he said "It depends when" he was describing what people beleive the Roe v. Wade framework describes. This was taken after he shifted (in the right direction) but before he announced.

I am not thrilled with Trump's exceptions (rape and incest. "Life of the mother" is not really a matter of abortion, it may be the matter of a medical procedure to save the life of the mother with the death of the baby as an unavoidable side effect, especially when the baby would die anyway. Making an exception for incest is an enabler for the father, uncle or brother to do more of the same, as we know that PP doesn't report these cases even when they are obvious).

Trump is not going to be Cruz, Santorum or even Huckabee on this issue, though he is moving in the right direction and is already taking the hit with some for being explicitly pro-life (even if his definition is not fully pro-life.)

He is not my first choice, but I am hopeful he would make decent Supreme Court picks, and restrictions on abortion, its funding etc. I don't particularly trust him, but will vote for him if he wins the primaries and hope he proves me wrong.

Most of his high profile supporters, from Palin and Schlafly (but not the Gov. of Iowa or Bob Dole) are great people and he appears better to me than he would absed on my judgment alone. I am hopeful they have gotten the right reassurances from him.

It is a somewhat ambiguous answer, but I don’t see how it would be anything but negative.

First, let’s be clear, this came AFTER his big “conversion.” Just to be clearer, we’re talking the beginning of last year.

If he is alluding to the Court’s satanic trimester theory, and he’s saying abortion should be allowed, even in the first trimester, then trump is clearly not pro-life and is a pro-abort.

If he is talking about early in the first trimrster, trump is still a pro-abort.

Because he blusters and harumphs through most topics, he seldom gives a grammatically coherent answer. He leaves it to the hearer to interpolate what he means. This is no exception. Because he has previously been profoundly pro-abort, he deserves close scrutiny on this issue. And if his answers are not sufficiently coherent, consistent, and supportive of the absolute goal of absolute legal protection for the unborn, then he should be marked down as still pro-abort, still a baby murderer.

And thus, all will know that if they are pro-trump for president, then they share the guilt with all the other murderers.
