The writer is twisting Trump’s words. Trump clearly says he opposes funding abortion. Whether PP could misuse funds to continue funding abortions would be a matter to be handled through the law.

The only way to do that is complete defunding by the federal government. any thing else allows to shift the funds.

Not if laws and budgets are written correctly. The Republicans blocked funds for Obama to close Gitmo. Ever heard of the Hyde amendment?

Funds to close Gitmo blocked

It's the congressional power of the purse the Republicans have made far too little use of during the Obama administrations.
