Trump ripped by right after calling DeSantis’ six-week abortion ban ‘terrible’
The New York Post ^ | 09/18/2023 | Ryan King

Posted on 09/18/2023 12:07:42 PM PDT by thegagline

Former President Donald Trump has drawn outrage from pro-life conservatives after he panned a six-week abortion ban championed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis as “terrible.”

“I think what he did is a terrible thing and a terrible mistake,” Trump, 77, told NBC’s “Meet the Press” when asked about the policy in an interview that aired Sunday.

The 45th president’s remarks triggered backlash among anti-abortion activists, including from groups like Live Action and Students for Life,***

“Pathetic and shameful. Trump is actively attacking the very pro-life laws made possible by Roe’s overturning,” Lila Rose of Live Action said on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Heartbeat Laws have saved thousands of babies. But Trump wants to compromise on babies’ lives so pro-abort Dems ‘like him.’ Trump should not be the GOP nominee.

***

The Susan B. Anthony List, which has pushed candidates to call for a national abortion ban — and criticized candidates like DeSantis who have declined to do so — initially had a tame response to Trump.

“We’re at a moment where we need a human rights advocate, someone who is dedicated to saving the lives of children and serving mothers in need. Every single candidate should be clear on how they plan to do that,” Marjorie Dannenfelser, SBA president, said in a statement.

“Anything later than a 15 week protection for babies in the womb (when science proves they can feel pain) as a national minimum standard makes no sense.”

We've already seen the disastrous results of Donald Trump compromising with Democrats: over $7 trillion in new debt, an unfinished border wall, and the jailbreak First Step Act letting violent criminals back on to the streets.

***

“Republicans across the country know that Ron DeSantis will never back down.”

DeSantis will improve his primary chances with this position.

For about one day, and then the truth will sink in that DeSanctimonious has his own problem on Abortion because his policy kills the unborn babies as well.

Why are they less fathered and less “churched” in such “non-black countries? You are implying a genetic tendency towards violence but then you use the qualifier “non-black country”. That might be a clue.

This is 40 miles of bad road. Not traveling it with you anymore. People will get tired of the interracial violence and we will go thru a period of vigilantism I’m afraid. The people stirring the pots right now are rarely caught and punished, save perhaps every couple of centuries or so!

“Either go all the way and declare it to be murder or drop the issue entirely.”

Have always been uncomfortable with the Republican position, I’m against abortion, except, except, except. Even when they win, the country continues to decline because they cede 90% of arguments and then with their backs against the wall say: But I will vigorously stand for this last 10%. They’re surrendering on gay marriage but will fight gender theory. They’re surrendering on drug legalization but complain about stoned crime weirdos.

You seem to agree that your pro-abortion position is because you want blacks killed.

... I really don’t plan on getting what abortion compromise “gets you”. What an awkward and unpleasant discussion that is going to be.

If you put a child in 20 different schools and he gets expelled every time, at some point maybe you should stop blaming the schools and maybe the child is the problem

Unnecessary conversation if people would simply stop attempting to control everyone and everything.

From my point of view, President Trump is trying to get out in front of the issue that concerns every single woman in this country, and the majority of those women are prepared to vote for any dem that insures they have unfettered access to abortion at any time they please.

And of course, trotting out that specific subject just in time for the election is precisely what President Trump is attempting to get out in front of, from what I can see. Get the conversation out there now and get it settled one way or another now instead of waiting to get ambushed like Graham did the the right back in the midterms.

Unpleasant? That's certainly an understatement.

Women are not going to simply change overnight and accept that the status quo will no longer be what they were brought up to believe. As I previously stated, it will take several generations to get rid of the mentality that you can abort your child whenever you desire.

So you are trolling rather than responding.

Is killing blacks the only reason you promote and support the abortion movement, or are there other reasons?

Just ONE MONTH AGO and barely anything in the media, a racist black man murders 4 white people, which comes only 2 months after another racist black killed 2 white people because of their skin color. But hey, lets only get mad when it is white on black.

This retired police Chief (64) was run over “for fun” by two black guys last week, when he was out cycling.

The victim’s name was Andreas Probst.

His killers live-streamed their indescribably evil hit-and-run. Watching it will make your stomach turn, but because the victim is white, the media won’t push a global campaign on his behalf and he’ll quickly be forgotten.

Reminder: A grand total of ZERO left wing media sources/pundits referred to Darrell Brooks as a “black supremacist” after his Waukesha Christmas Parade Massacre.

Brooks intentionally ran over 68 white people, (17 of them children) killed 4 grandmothers and an 8-year-old girl.

You seem to have mentally lost it, you are spamming this thread and are non-responsive to posters.

No, you are the one ignoring the evidence I present, but go ahead and keep telling us how every white kid is a natural born white supremacist and deserves that beatdown by those poor oppressed black kids on the playground

Evidence of what? I was asking you if killing blacks is the only reason you are so pro-abortion, that is a question of your personal opinion.

God will snatch Trump’s victory away, just like he did when he called for two-state solution with Israel.

Here, let me explain the situation to you:

1. blacks do the most abortions, black women have huge amounts of children out of wedlock
2. If that were not the case the amount of black voters would massively increase and we would have a democratic party monopoly in the country
3. And that in turn would mean no more bans on abortion

So in other words, your group that does the most abortions would eventually grow and make sure that NO anti-abortion laws would pass

Somebody ask Trump how there can be a 6-week dividing line between the life and death of a baby?

That’s a good question to ask all Pro Life Republicans.

6 weeks isn’t conception but maybe the Pro Life Republicans are more realist than religious..

What you're saying is that Trump's Ego sometimes obstructs his Good Sense.

Which is true.

Nope, not even a little bit. Not even for a day or so.

The guy is toast, and toast he will remain.
