Trump’s late-term abortion warning in 2016 debate against Clinton goes viral
Fox News ^ | 01 FEB 2019 | Brooke Singman

A prescient exchange from a 2016 debate between now-President Trump and Hillary Clinton has gone viral and gained new traction amid the newly stoked abortion debate over state bills aimed at loosening restrictions on third-trimester terminations.

A video from the final presidential debate in October 2016 in Las Vegas, Nev., circulated on social media Friday, showing then-candidate Trump blasting former Secretary of State Clinton over her stance on abortion, describing in graphic terms what he alleged to be her position on the issue.

“With what Hillary is saying, in the ninth month, you can take the baby and rip the baby out of the womb of the mother just prior to the birth of the baby,” Trump said. “Now you can say that that’s okay, and Hillary can say that that’s okay, but it’s not okay with me.”

He continued: “Because based on what she’s saying, and based on where she’s going and where she’s been, you can take the baby and rip the baby out of the womb in the ninth month, on the final day. And that’s not acceptable.”

Clinton accused Trump of using “scare” tactics in response.

“Well, that is not what happens in these cases and using that kind of scare rhetoric is just terribly unfortunate,” she rebutted. “This is one of the worst possible choices that any woman and her family has to make, and I do not believe the government should be making it.”

It does seem to be part of the lefty playbook, regardless of the issue. “That’s not true, they are using scare tactics” always morphs into “So what?” and “that’s old news.” Hm.

Really a shame that hillary’s mother didn’t have that law to use. It would have saved the world a whole lot of grief.

The Supreme court issue will NOT be about abortion. It will be about “murder” of a defenseless human being.

Trump’s warning, and his nomination of conservative judges, were affronts to the democrats love of abortions.

So, these late-term abortion (aka: murder of babies) laws that the democrats want to implement, are just the “in your face” responses to Trump. It’s a set of dares. They are daring Trump and the Supreme Court to try to undo Roe-v-Wade, because, they think they have the higher and moral ground on this issue.

No doubt, the majority of Americans disagree with the democrats, and they’ll be taught a very big and deadly lesson to their party this next election cycle.

How can some state pass a law that goes against what it explicitly says in the US constitution ala the 14th Amendment- and expect it to survive. This isn't about abortion its like you said its murder

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

This is pretty darn clear

That Trump was so impolite. Gentlemen are not supposed to contradict a lady like that. Acting like a man. The nerve of him.

No wonder the majority of suburban women voters hate Trump and used that as their reason to vote for the Dems to a House majority in the midterms.

They blame men for everything including their own failures and faults.

Now we have to suffer under a Dem House majority and hear Pelosi every day.

Fox should have let that tape roll.

HRC replies and the lie she repeats is Truth today, EXACTLY, as Trump DEFINED.

Videos are so cut to fit, chopped and sliced, that we no longer know how to debate a response from the opposition.

Trump is prophetic, so was Jesus and those in power at the time had him killed because they didn’t like what he was saying. No, Trump is not a messiah but those who hate him rises to the level of hate the ruling elite had for Jesus. And still has for that fact.

It’s one thing to have to deliver early. It happens. Example, placentia previa can force an early delivery to save the lives of mom and child.

But KILLING the baby does nothing to save the life of the mother.

Early induction of labor is very dangerous for the life of the mother all by itself, even for a healthy pregnancy. But the purpose of an ABORTION has nothing to do with preserving anybody’s life. The purpose of abortion is to kill the infant. Period.

Language regarding abortion is very important. Pregnancy is the condition of the mother when she has a baby in her womb. The baby is not the ‘pregnancy’.

Early termination of a pregnancy in abortion speak, means deliberately terminating the life of the child, and them removing it from the womb.

When a woman learns that her unborn baby has a disorder of some sort that is truly incompatible with life, she usually doesn’t wait till she reached her due date to decide to kill the baby.

If that child has a condition which is incompatible with life, it will die on its own.

Once again, the blood industry of abortion seeks to lie and confuse.

That said, the decision regarding abortion should be a state decision. The problem is the legislators mandating it rather than putting it up for a vote of the people.

In my opinion, not state legislations should ever make laws without the input of the people of that state. The reason the make laws without the input of the people, is because they want to circumvent the will of the people.

Abortion is big money for many.

HILLARY says abortion is a tragic decision that should be between a woman and her doctor. She lies. 16 year olds aren’t woman. They’re children. Teenagers. Remember the language.

If the decision to terminate pregnancy (the condition of being pregnant) should be between a female and her doctor, then why is government hell bent to kill that child??? Blood money.

I know a woman carrying twins who had to terminate her pregnancy early because od placenta previa. One od the babies was much bigger than the other, and tje docs thought tje smaller baby was being starved. Termination, or theraputic abortion..(proper language) was decided upon to save the lives of the mother, and the children.

She was bleeding due to the placement of the placenta.

After the babies were born, and as they grew, it became apparent that the smaller baby was naturally a small person while the bigger baby was naturally a larger person.

In another case, the woman was pregnant with identical twins. They were found to have one of the trisomy conditions, I don’t recall now which one. She aborted early, not to kill the babies..they were born alive, but because that condition was incompatible with life. Neither one had a face, and only a hole for the nose. Their hands were woven into their abdominal skin. She terminated so she could have a healthy child. Those babies died in her arms. Their condition was truly incompatible with life. She went on to have a healthy child.

So yes, there are times when early termination has to happen. But deliberate killing of the children is what bloody lawmakers want. Its infanticide, period. They hide the reality from themselves by denying the humanity of the preborn child.

There’s no law against saving lives. It takes laws to allow the deliberate killing of a child.

Whenever I see someone hellbent to promote abortion as if their own lives depend upon the deaths of children, i have to ask, what’s behind this? There is nothing innocent about wanting children to die.
