Dems would love to make PP “war on women” a centerpiece of the election. Trump is trying to take that off the table. I’m sure he’ll get lynched for it in the primary but Trump is already positioning himself for the general.
Fact is there is no major support in the GOPe to defund PP. It’s all a kabuki red meat for the base day dream. It will never happen.
Finally someone that sees the forest for the trees. Trump has been running a general election for the past couple of months now—The other candidates are still fighting the last war. They are in the trenches but Trump is steaming around the Maginot Line in a Blitzkrieg fashion.
