STOP taking questions on abortion. There is no way to win and NO president can do squat about it anyway......and it’s gonna be another 50 years before the Scotus can do zip either!

Trump isn’t a lawyer or politician and he is STILL better than all the rest of them put together. He’s done an amazing job with the public and the press having had NO EXPERIENCE with GOTCHA candidates and the press.

NO candidate has EVER gone through this much BS. Anyone who defends the tactics used against Trump is the problem in this country.

I take it you’re a Trumper?

Fine. I won’t flame you.

But HOW? How in the world will Trump get away with this? You know the liberals will NEVER let his “punish the women” remarks rest.

And us Socons are more disgusted than ever at this flip-flop.

Trump’s practice of saying whatever pops into his head not working out so well. A disastrous general election candidate.

Halfway back. Doctor held accountable, woman is a victim for deciding to get impregnated and murder her child. Trump was right the first time but his handlers deemed it politically incorrect.

RYAN is the worst Establishment TRAITOR in D.C.

Good luck with the Dark Side.

Well, if it costs him the R nominee, he’ll go 3rd party and get my vote.

Of course it was a loaded question. The truth is the chance of abortion being illegal under federal law is remote at best. If Roe v. Wade were overturned it would be a state issue most likely. Congress would have to pass a law, and whether it would criminalize the woman or just the doctor would be up to the lawmakers. So why ask Trump? Have they asked Kasich or Cruz? Have they asked Hillary or Bernie whether they would enforce such a law? No. Trump needs to learn to not answer such idiotic hypothetical gotcha questions though.

I’m surprised he was punitive in this topic as he is not exactly a raging social con.

“STOP taking questions on abortion. There is no way to win and NO president can do squat about it anyway......and it’s gonna be another 50 years before the Scotus can do zip either!”

why oh why do some people feel they HAVE to answer every question that is asked? Why don’t candidates get coached on how to address this as a “private matter for each woman and no further answer”

Does that matter? We know what Hillary is.

We are just now finding out what Trump is.

That is some of us are. Some of us have known for a while.

He is crazy.

He absolutely is.

His family reined him in for 5 days but he got loose again.

“He is crazy.”

Like you always say..PROVE IT! Be careful when you look for a definition, you’ll likely find a picture of Rafael.

A vote for Cruz gets us Hillary. And YOU will be reminded of it!

Yea the Trump strategy has been disastrous, if you consider trouncing all the other candidates for the nomination to be a disastrous strategy... In which case he is Mr. Disaster..

It was not a loaded question. Everyone knows that women have never been prosecuted for abortions. Well, apparently NOT everybody! lol

Yea i think he was under pressure and was following the logic of what abortion is... I don’t see his comments as a mistake...I see his comments and then walking them back as a mistake...

How many loaded questions has Hitlery been asked the past year? Zero or Zero?

The better question is, "Why can't Trump see it when he's asked a "loaded" question?"

And the answer is he thought he was throwing his supporters some red meat.

But, that blowed up real good.
