The hits keep on coming for the Donald.
In response to several folks seemingly misunderstanding what the 2016 GOP frontrunner said on CNN on Tuesday morning about Planned Parenthood funding, Donald Trump has issued a statement to Breitbart News exclusively that makes it crystal clear where he stands: While the organization conducts abortions, they should receive no taxpayer dollars.
That means Trump supports one of two pathways forward for Planned Parenthood: Either they stop conducting abortions, or they lose all their taxpayer subsidies.

Double BOOM!!!
Owned!
Nobody should be getting tax subsidies they don’t earn from direct employment with the government.
Pingaling
Refreshing to have a candidate who is more likely to react to conservative outrage than they are to PC faux outrage from the Washington elites.
Senator Graham, are you paying attention?
Bwahahahahaaaa.
And he caught Erick Ericksen again, and Rand Paul.
Oh my. Cant type.... Laughing..
DANG! We need an ocean filled with popcorn. This election is getting very HOT!
Oh so inconvenient, Trump actually has a detailed and reasonable position that might be acceptable to lots of folks: No public money to PP so long as they carry out abortions. What is wrong with that? Once they stop abortions, paying for reasonable and acceptable medical care should not be controversial. As the article points out, this puts everyone in a corner since abortions are supposed to be a small $ part of their operation, thus his approach is achievable and is women-friendly.
Oh common...cut that out Trump!
Pretty soon Trump opponents are going to run out of issues to bitch about!
Today he spelled out alternatives to Obamacare, and There was NO SINGLEPAYER.
The Trump opponents will soon a cocktail of Xanax & Pepto-Bismal.
Actually no taxpayer subsidies should go to PP unless the states amend the Constitution to grant the feds the specific power to tax and spend for such a purpose.
The reason that the feds have been using taxpayer dollars to fund PP is that the corrupt Senate failed to protect the states by not killing House appropriations bills which funded PP. This is another reason why the states need to repeal the ill-conceived 17th Amendment.
HOORAY Trump.
Hear the boom?
Boom? Exploding heads?
You’re running out of excuses
Glad he clarified his earlier statement. However, I am getting whiplash keeping up with his changing positions.
People didn’t misunderstand Trump. They tried to spin what he said to make it sound pro-abortion, including the LSM, GOPe types, and several of the usual suspects here.
Thanks for posting.
Trump plays the game very well, very smart to go back to Breitbart to correct the record: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3323296/posts
I couldn’t believe what Nolte wrote this morning. His misappropriated quote dragged Planned Parenthood itself into the fray today with their applause for Trump’s comments!
What a live-time lesson in how plugged in the powers-that-be are to FR and Twitter and... comments sections.
Ta ra ra BOOM de ay!
Well now, that’s a bit of all right.
