TRUMP: ‘I delivered’ Roe abortion victory with court picks

Former President Donald Trump said Friday that the Supreme Court overturned the Roe v. Wade decision establishing a national right to abortion because he was able to install three nominees on the bench during his term in office.
Mr. Trump called the ruling “the biggest win for life in a generation” and said it was “only made possible because I delivered everything as promised.”
“I did not cave to the Radical Left Democrats, their partners in the Fake News Media, or the RINOs who are likewise the true, but silent, enemy of the people,” the former GOP president said in a statement issued by his political action committee.
Mr. Trump nominated three of the court members in the majority in Friday’s ruling: Justices Neil M. Gorsuch, Brett M. Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett.
They joined Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr., a George W. Bush appointee, and Justice Clarence Thomas, a George H.W. Bush appointee, in striking down Roe. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., another George W. Bush pick, sided with the others in upholding Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban, but said he would not have overruled all of Roe at this point.

He is at that and it’s very refreshing to see a man with some testosterone flowing in his veins.
I always appreciated his lack of pretense and his ability to push the left over the edge in a frothing rage in so few words.
He knows what to say, when to say it, and he’s the comeback king. I wish I could think that fast on my feet like he does. I always come up with the perfect retort about a half an hour later.

You might have missed it, but the left has been goading the right for decades...
Of course, including the government with its agents provacateurs, the difference is we have learned to keep our cool. They lose it, sometimes turning on their own.

Yep - most of the way through the primaries I thought the same thing - that he would be too liberal. Of course I voted for him, and stayed up late watching US win!

Thry are just picking and choosing words out of context. They could have just as easily created a headline that said, “It was God’s decision” which is what Trump did say but they want him to look like it’s all about him. The media is pathetic and you would do well to just ignore them and get Trump’s quotes directly.
To: RandFan
Thank you, President Trump. And thank you Mitch McConnell.

He gets credit but he also needs to take blame then when his nominees blow one and his three have not exactly proven to be hard-nosed conservatives.

Boy, some people don’t know when to keep their mouth shut and let their actions do the talking. That’s why so many people hate his braggart ways.
---------------------------------------------------------
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
Theodore Roosevelt

Agree!
I thought Trump would be the Nelson Rockefeller administration that never was. What else could a New York City Republican be?

To: RandFan
3 solid pro life judges, better than Reagan, GB1 & GB2 could muster with all of their picks. Thats the reason he got my vote both times. How can never trumpers even show their faces, Trump did more conservative stuff than anyone

Only leftists hate him doing that. And he is baiting them thus, creating in them a manner of frenzy that is particularly self-destructive. Try to name any of the 73 million real voters for Trump in 2020 that “hate” this aspect of the man.

So what if he bragged about it. It’s a tiny molehill in the grand scheme of things.

“God made the decision,” Trump said of the ruling.

Why can't both statements be true at the same time?
