Donald Trump Defends Planned Parenthood, Calls Abortions 'Small Part of What They Do'
The Daily Signal ^ | 8/12/2015 | Natalie Johnson

Donald Trump suggested that he would not support ending taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood's non-abortion services in two interviews Tuesday.

"We have to help women," Trump told Fox News' Sean Hannity in an interview that aired on Tuesday night. " So we have to look at the positives, also, for Planned Parenthood."

Trump said he opposes federal grants going towards Planned Parenthood's abortion practices, but noted that abortions make up a "small part" of the organization. ...

Trump appeared to support shutting down the government rather than fund Planned Parenthood in an interview last week. "Asked directly by conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt if its worth shitting down the federal government to strip Planned Parenthood's $528 million in government funding, Trump replied, 'I would,'" Politico reported.

Planned Parenthood released a statement Tuesday lauding Trump's comments, urging Republicans to "reconsider their extreme and unpopular positions on defunding preventative care" and "abortion bans." ...

"He said as long as they are doing abortions no tax money. If they stop the abortions, then he will look at whatever else they say they do for women."

What would that be?

Trump is a liberal who is parroting the liberal line about PP.

Planned Parenthood Does NO Mammograms

As if actual conservatives needed another reason to dump Trump.

It doesnt matter to the Trump haters. They will twist and turn his words to what they want it to mean. This story has been posted so many times since Tuesday, I suspect its done so all the anti-Trump folks can jump in and have a good ole time. Meanwhile, did you hear what Dr Carson did back in the 90’s?

Yep, you are essentially stating what drives Trump supporters: do not read what Trump says or has ever said - just get caught up in the name calling, the repeated slapping of the media, rope-a-dope talk and drink the Kool Aid.

Well, judging from this thread ,there are some who suddenly believe PP actually has health-related services for women. Never thought I’d see that, really.

No, but did you hear what Trump did in late July? He went on "Morning Joe" and told them some of his positions are those of a Democrat.

The Trump Bots will continue to drink the Kool Aid... /sigh.

Their defense of Trump is so that they can defend their position of getting worked up into a frenzy over his name calling, repeated slapping of the media and rope-a-dope talk - thereby somehow justifying that he is a credible candidate.

More Kool Aid for you? How does it taste?

Cruz in 2016, btw.

No she was just pointing out that
1 the feminazi would use he PP defunding into an issue.
2.some women need the health services it provides
3 to negate the feminazi charges health services other than abortion should be provided

Would you rather the Gop be used as a target or dodge the bucket? Or are you supplying the ammunition?

I read through this thread and see one person after another putting their party over the good of the nation
Don’t want to be associated with people who don’t put country first and attack their fellow soldiers in the war

Jim this is an example of earlier discussion

No, that’s not what I am saying. I am simply pointing out that People love Headlines that don’t tell the entire story.

That can apply to both Trump Supporters and Trump Haters.

You know what they say, the Devil is in the Details.
