Trump declined to say what time frame he thinks is appropriate for an abortion ban and instead insisted that he would “sit down with both sides and I’d negotiate something, and we’ll end up with peace on that issue for the first time in 52 years.” “Both sides are going to like me,” he added. “I’m going to come together with all groups, and we’re going to have something that’s acceptable.” ***

There can be no compromise when one side refuses to admit the humanity and right to life of the unborn baby. For them the woman is all powerful and can chose to kill her baby at any time prior to birth and for any reason at all. It doesn't matter if it's six weeks or 15 weeks along, it is STILL a human baby. I don't even think rape or incest justify it. It's not the baby's fault how he/she was conceived. The only valid exception should be if the mother's very life is jeopardized if the pregnancy continues. This is because BOTH the mother and baby would perish.

Abortion must become unthinkable for there to ever be peace on the issue. I'm disappointed that Trump failed to defend life. He's trying to appeal to both sides and that isn't possible.

People here are discussing electoral politics not philosophy.

You do understand that a candidate taking your position, a candidate you find “acceptable”, is committing suicide, right?

And that candidate will lose to someone who has wrong positions on many other issues besides abortion.

Don’t vote against your conscience. But don’t scorn people who want to win.

Trump is probably pro-abortion. I bet he’s paid for a few. But he got Roe v. Wade overturned, which is more - a lot more - than any other Republican has even come close to doing.

“I’m disappointed that Trump failed to defend life.”

The same can be said about DeSantis. Is there something magical about 6 weeks? Is a 41 day old less human than a 42 day old?
