>> Trump is playing their game <<

Indeed he is. Trump had absolutely no problem with abortion for years, and even supported partial birth abortion without blinking. But, then he started floating the idea of running for President as a Republican, and saw what happens to pro-abortion candidates (Rudy Giuliani, etc.) who try to win the GOP nomination nationally. So Trump "changed his mind" on abortion overnight, and made sure to use the word "pro-life" to describe himself, and throw in some meaningless platitudes about defunding abortion in speeches to conservative voters.

The sad thing is his supporters believe he's sincere in these views and not playing the "say what they wanna hear so they elect me" game.

I don’t know whether Trump is sincere in his pro-life views or not. No one does.

But I do believe he is sincere in his position to build the wall and counter the jihad, and is the candidate most likely to have success doing so.

I’m on board with him for those reasons. Anything else will be gravy.

Then elect your guy and continue the 40 year tradition of GOP politicians who tell you what you want to hear and do NOTHING to end the murders.

Playing both sides.
“I am against abortion but FOR funding PP”

“We will kick them all out then bring the good ones, which is many of them, right back”

Tough but compassionate...

Just pick what you want him to say from his menu of different positions.
