Trump was using common sense to arrive at the conclusion that if abortion is illegal, then the woman getting one is participating in the killing. It is a logical conclusion.

He was unaware, as most people likely are, that all through the 20th century women were treated as victims of the abortionist rather than accomplices. Maybe a relic of Victorian ideas about the role of women- whatever it was it’s how the laws were written. There were only two women prosecuted for getting abortions in the US in the 20th century.

That being said, Tamar appears to be more interested in Trump bashing than shedding any light on the issue.

I wasn’t aware of that regarding prosecutions.

I am only going on what I perceived from what happened in my past regarding this.

We were two stupid young adults doing things that we had no business doing, because we had no way of handling the consequences in any sort of responsible manner. The whole relationship was so ill advised from the start, nonetheless, it happened.

The one person in all of it who did absolutely nothing was the baby, and the baby got the worst of it. So I view the baby as the victim.

As far as the young lady goes, she passed away at the age of 40 from an aneuryism, so I’m not going to say anything on her end.

What it really boils down to is if I had not stuck it in, none of this would have happened, so it’s my fault. Yes, it’s very hard at a young age to be able to resist the temptations of the flesh. I failed. And there were serious consequences to that failure.

I have felt the weight of this since it happened, even back then when I was pro-choice, there was no way to deny what had been done. Was it the doctor’s fault? No, I paid him to do this. Was it her fault? No, I asked her too. Was it my fault? Yes, you should have been smarter, Chris. What a mistake.

As far as what Trump said, yes, if abortion is to be illegal, then all parties involved in the illegal act bear some measure of responsibility. The only party who did nothing was the baby.

And yes Tamar1973 seems very eager to bash Trump and call people clever variations of his name. Typical Cruz supporter.
