In is own words: Trump on his admiration for Hillary and Bill Clinton
Leopards don’t change their spots.
Trump is telling us what we want to hear, just like Romney did.
I don’t trust either of them.
This is one of the issues that leads to his upset in Iowa and New Hampshire.
Ask Cruz if he supports abortion bans at the federal level.
Ask Cruz if he supports gay marriage bans at the federal level.
Socons were fooled into supporting a Rand Paul clone.
What does it matter (i.e., Tag Line)? The other will simply flood the country with newly-legalized Democrats and abortion will be the law of the land, WITHOUT RECOURSE.
With Trump clearing them out, we get to fight another day.
[ The more likely result of a Trump nomination, of course, would be a Clinton presidency ]
No. No, it wouldn’t.
Weakly standard.
What you all should do, is become sainted. Beyond all human repair or neediness.
Then, we could have a conversation.
How’s that sound?
That Trump could go from supporting third-trimester abortion--something indistinguishable from infanticide, something that only 14 percent of Americans think should be legal--to becoming pro-life because of that one experience is a bit hard to believe. If it's true, the story still indicates at the very least that Trump is not capable of serious moral reasoning.---
When I learned that Obama was the only legislator to oppose the partial birth abortion ban, I knew all I needed to know.
Yesterday I wrote a lengthy post, saying that Trump doesn't have a firm grasp on good and evil...
You either get this or you don't. But this is a very, very bad sign.
I think it’s a reasonable question. We don’t know what Trump will do if he is elected. We don’t know what any candidate will do if he/she is elected. We know only what they say they will do.
The gap between campaign rhetoric and actual performance in office is often very wide.
The only issue for me is stopping immigration - ALL immigration.
Second fro me is supreme court justices’ appointments.
Nothing else matters.
I would like to know more what kind of justices Trump would appoint to the SC. Electing a republican is no guarantee of getting a conservative, strict constitutionalist on the court.
I am a firm believer that as one ages they become more wiser and conservative on life issues. It’s not always the case, but more so than not. I think at 70 years this explains Trump’s evolution.
Yoda would point out that ALL of them since Row vs Wade must have been;
for future American Citizen murder is STILL with us.
Do or do not; there is no try. talking about how it offends thee so much.
He can appoint Mickey Mouse but it has to be approved by the Senate.........
Abortion and Presidents has been a non-issue since RvW and will forever remain so.......
The MSM always brings up the issue during election years in order to cause dissension within the republican party. Not surprising they never bring up abortion and democrats even tho there are a great number of democrats who are pro-life.....
In 1999 I was pro-abortion.
By the Grace of God & through the Teachings of the Catholic Church I realized the wrongness of abortion.
People do change their view.
Peace :)
If he were elected and was a pro abortion president you can bet his fan club would blame someone else.
ENOUGH!! The opposing camps in this primary are like third grade kids arguing over whose dad is tougher. Simple solutions always work the best. Simple solution to the arguing is:
1. Make a list of “absolute” issues (end illegal immigration, anti-abortion, reduce size of government, lower taxes, etc.)
2. Draw up a legally binding contract, WITH NO WEASELING OUT, for the Presidential candidates.
3. Whoever wont sign is unworthy of our vote.
4. If they fail to carry out their pledge, it constitutes “high crimes and misdemeanors” and subject to impeachment.
5. If Congress will not cooperate, AFTER BEING PRESENTED WITH BILLS, they lose our vote in next election.
Yes, we all know Trump was moderate to liberal a few years ago. He couldn’t have survived in Manhattan without being that. He is now an unblinking, unrepentant, firebrand for the causes that are important however. The list is as follows...
1. Immigration
2. Immigration
3. Immigration
“...The attack was more than a bit hypocritical because Trump himself was “very” pro-abortion not so long ago. In 1999....”
I didn’t need to read further than this. When you define “not so long ago” as seventeen years, nothing you say could possibly have any meaning.
I see the daily anti-Trump propaganda has started early today. Let’s see how many seminar Cruz-z-zer’s post today! :-)
Unless Trump is running for the Supreme Court, why would it matter?
