Donald Trump now says doctors should be punished, not women and has issued this statement, which contradicts what he said in an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Matthews:

If Congress were to pass legislation making abortion illegal and the federal courts upheld this legislation, or any state were permitted to ban abortion under state and federal law, the doctor or any other person performing this illegal act upon a woman would be held legally responsible, not the woman. The woman is a victim in this case as is the life in her womb. My position has not changed – like Ronald Reagan, I am pro-life with exceptions.

    Who wants me or any sane person to believe Donald Trump wrote this statement? He finally saw he went too far and there is a line too far.

    The statement was so stupidly extreme someone tried to mend it for him. Useless, his words speak louder of who he is.

    • whatthe46 March 30th, 2016 at 17:27

      no way he even wrote it. much less could even think to use any of those words in context.

      • Gina Bousquet March 30th, 2016 at 17:34

        The text is an acrobatic failed attempt to twist his previous statement for the better, but even thus he surely wouldn’t be able to write it, you’re right.

        • The Original Just Me March 30th, 2016 at 23:43

          Don’t ever say Whatthe is RIGHT, She is CORRECT ! LOL :+)

          “Every Trump sentence has words. Sometimes three words. Or two. And they’re great sentences. Terrific sentences. That I can tell you. Believe me. They’re great. With the best words. Terrific repeated words. Not very big words. Every Trump sentence has words.”

    Donald Trump will Never be U.S. President, BUT, he will be King of the Flip-Flops.

    • Homosexual March 31st, 2016 at 01:37

      Kerry 2004… oh the irony…..

      • whatthe46 March 31st, 2016 at 01:53

        not even close. tRump can make a statement in one interview and 10 minutes in another, he states the complete opposite with an entirely different opinion. in this case he forgot the dumb ass statement he made saying that’s not what he said. roll video please.

        • The Original Just Me March 31st, 2016 at 13:53

          He just plays to what ever audience is in front of him. He has NO direction.

    Operative word being IF Donald. And since you also don’t understand how government works, a President then gets to ignore the stupidity and yuuuuge waste of time and tax dollars spent on a ignorant idea such as yours to begin with and rightly veto’s it.
