Your links don’t make much of a case for the point you claim, even though the point you claim (”that Trump is far better than ANYONE has been to date in the Oval Office, when it comes to taking action that will reduce the numbers of abortions in the United States, and abroad”) seems pretty weak to begin with. I recall folks urging me to support Romney by saying the GOP candidate was 10,000 times better than Obama. Well, 10,000 x 0 = 0. Thousands of persons are deprived of their lives without due process on every typical day here in the US under color of law. That was true before Trump was elected, and it remains true today. Trump has failed miserably in this important matter.

Your questions correctly note that the candidate I supported for President in 2016 was not elected. I respectfully point out that President Trump doesn’t fare too well with those questions even though he was elected. For example, you ask how many Planned Parenthood offices has our fellow FReeper deprived of funding? One of your links reported that Planned Parenthood closed two offices in Ohio due to Trump administration’s recent Title X funding restrictions. Neither of the two facilities performed abortions.

My minimum standard for supporting candidates is pretty simple. I don’t support any of the Democratic Party candidates, nor any of the Republican Party candidates this year.

That’s laughable Steve.

Go ahead and vote for whoever you like. That’s your right of course. Just know that you won’t be chipping in to save one kid with that vote.

Planned Parenthood is all over Trump for his actions against them, and yet you found no reason to think Trump has been good on this topic.

A number of politicians promise something. They give it a cosmetic go. Then at the first sign of resistance, they drop it and say, “Well, I tried...”

Trump has appealed things the the Supreme Court and prevailed there.

He’s following through on most of his promises.

How many of those promises would have been met if ten million Republicans would have joined you voting for someone who couldn’t win?

How many of those promises would Hillary Clinton have incorporated into her action plan?

As it is, we have someone in there who is working to make things better.

What other president pushed to defund Planned Parenthood?

How many took action to reduce US funding for abortion overseas?

Did you help make that a reality? Ah no!
