GOP vice presidential nominee Mike Pence on Thursday predicted that Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court ruling that legalized abortion, would be overturned if Donald Trump is elected president.
“I’m pro-life and I don’t apologize for it,” he said during a town hall meeting here. “We’ll see Roe vs. Wade consigned to the ash heap of history where it belongs.”

Absolutely not, but “talking” about stopping it does nothing but fire up the other side.
We need to squelch open borders, unfettered 3rd world immigration that we don’t need, globalism and free traitors, and USA second. Only until we get those issues fixed should we move on.
Though wholeheartedly agree Roe v Wade should be overturned...
It was bad law to begin with...
The result if that can actually happen is it would throw back the question to the individual states...
In the larger picture, that actually might be a bad idea...
I can see several states basically allowing an abortion at any time during gestation, for any reason...
At least R v W has some limits...continuing education and technology will eventually drive down abortion numbers even more...
He stepped on the third rail.
What crap. Everytime we hear this prediction, the opposite happens.
So congrats, Mike Pence, you’ve likely just reassured the Left.
That is exactly what Pence wants to do, motivate the Democrat base. Dumber than dumb.
Because he wants to lose?
You can’t win an election with 19% of the vote.
Mike. Just hush for a few weeks. You should be practicing for debates anyway, not making big policy goals this early.
That is not going to be your job.
“He needs to just STFU. What a dumbass. He is reading out of Ted Cruz playbook. Muzzle the dumb bastard.”
I agree. I didn’t like Pence’s statement yesterday about Russia. It’s almost like he is trying to sabotage Trump.
Whether you are for or against Roe Vs Wade, this wasn’t necessary.
You’re right, he really does need to shut up. He’s NOT the nominee, Trump is.
I'm glad Pence is drawing a sharp contrast on this. R v W was the biggest blunder in our nation's history. From a political perspective, abortion was fine in this nation until black robes ruined it and turned it into the divisive issue that it is now.
THANK YOU, GOVERNOR PENCE
Mr Trump will have to duct tape that guy’s mouth until after election day.
What are the odds Hillary brings this up tonight?
Nothing “dumb about what Pence said. I agree with him. Trump will get to appoint 3 justices to the SCOTUS. I believe is Roe V Wade is dumped into the sewer where it belongs after Trump’s SCOTUS is in place.
Stop being wussies. Learn from what Trump’s doing by NOT HOLDING BACK. Pence is fine. The “old way” of the GOPe is OVER!
Vote Trump 2016
If she’s smart she will. : (
They’ll be working on new ads all night tonight.
Way to go Mike!
No, it didn't. It created BS law out of the Constitution's ass and that's why we have all these litmus tests, political divisiveness and discord, and abortion doctors getting murdered all this time.
Everything was fine - from a political, 10th Amendment standpoint - fine with abortion. States had their own laws on abortion. That all changed in 1973 with the most disastrous ruling in SCOTUS history.
I am not watching, so I won’t know. : )
Who cares, they're not going to vote for Pence anyway.
