Trump’s words are constantly being twisted or taken out of context. Besides, if he had said that, I doubt Carson would have endorsed him.
Yes, several state legislatures have taken steps, and I give them credit for that, even though the practice will continue.
But the national GOP has done nothing, and they never will do anything, and it’s not just on this plank either.
Everything in their platform is complete horse crap.
Their platform should contain one plank and one plank only.
We will advance the government agenda.
Because that is all they do.
And the national GOP did this, you say?
There are definitely a number of things that one can say to cause a firestorm here.
You have to agree 100.00%, or you are the enemy. But that’s cool. I don’t want to cause trouble in that regard.
Yep.
If someone called me a pedophile, I’d be punching them in the face, not helping them pick a VP.
But also, even though I like Carson as a person, my own opinion of him is that he is basically an idiot savant.
He should really stick with neurosurgery.
Figures. Trump can do nothing good in the world eyes of the NeverTrumpers.
You are agreeing with a pro-Trump post yet you are giving me a hard time because I was doing the same? You need to get yourself together.
If we went by your strategy, pro-lifers would have already given up by the late 70s the idea that life begins at conception and we’re only dealing with a blob of stupid cells-no forethought whatsoever that ultrasounds would advance and become clearer to the public.
“Life of the mother?” Do you realize what a legally broad “exception” you’re okay with? Legally, “life of the mother” includes one’s mental, financial, and social health, As, in the mom is going to “delay opportunities in life and be sad and poor because of the baby” argument. Good thing you’re not writing legislation or you would have given the whole issue away already.
Secondly, please tell me how abortions save mothers’ lives as opposed to a child being pre-maturely delivered by cesarean section or induced labor. Don’t forget how long it takes to prepare a pregnant woman’s cervix before an abortion is performed. If it’s an issue of saving a woman from dying, a doctor is not going to wait the hours needed to prep an abortion to try and save woman who will die at any moment. At least those babies who are born prematurely are given chance.
Furthermore, the “incest and rape” exception is just another way a so called pro lifer says that every new born life is worthy except if you were born of rape or incest, then you’re just another piece of trash. Do you realize how many ppl in this country and world were born from this horrible circumstance? You’re telling them their lives are worth less than everybody else.
And having an abortion would save your wife if she got pregnant? You realize the physical stress that’s put on the woman’s body when an abortion is performed? Unfortunately, your wife had neglectful doctors when she was a child and cavalier arrogant doctors later when she was an adult. It’s one thing to not become pregnant for whatever medical risks a woman already has before pregnancy, it’s quite another to say that an abortion poses no stress on a woman’s body in any way that could be considered harmful to whatever condition she already has. Here’s breaking news, abortion is not tantamount to a live baby being teleported (like star trek) from the womb to mangled baby parts outside the womb.
Thanks, Greetings_Puny_Humans. Cruz is lying. He is a power hungry, globalist, open borders sell out. He could care less about abortion. Trump has put out a list of very conservative judges who are against abortion.
GO TRUMP!!!
Thank you, Rogers Stone! GO TRUMP!

I am pretty much against anything Lyin’ Ted. Hopefully the republicans can find a non Canadian to run for Texas Senator in 2018.
Yes we realized that and more. It is a reason we didn’t abort out children. The primary reason was that parents should not kill their children.
My point was simply that this is an issue I am, we are very familiar with. It is not ideological but personal
You didn’t answer the question - are you pro-life or pro-abortion?
Please disregard my previous question. I didn’t get to the bottom of the thread.
Still, to abandon the pro-life plank opens up a horrible vacuum... as flawed as the GOP is, you have to stand for some basics.
I’m sure we all remember when the Dems denied God three times.
Do you really conflate killing an innocent baby before it has a chance to draw one breath with punishment of a criminal under that state’s laws? So, a murderer has the same moral standing as a baby who hasn’t been allowed to be born?
I’d love to hear your defense of this.
>>due process<<
And there you are. Thank you.
