But the bottom line is that, you don&#8217;t have a record there to look at and say, \u201cI feel at peace that when Donald Trump is president of the United States, he&#8217;s going to be firmly on our side on these issues.\u201d In fact, very recently, he was still defending Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Trump responded:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">As far as Planned Parenthood is concerned, I&#8217;m pro-life. I&#8217;m totally against abortion, having to do with Planned Parenthood. But millions and millions of women &#8212; cervical cancer, breast cancer &#8212; are helped by Planned Parenthood. So you can say whatever you want, but they have millions of women going through Planned Parenthood that are helped greatly. And I wouldn&#8217;t fund it. I would defund it because of the abortion factor, which they say is 3 percent. I don&#8217;t know what percentage it is. They say it&#8217;s 3 percent. But I would defund it, because I&#8217;m pro-life. But millions of women are helped by Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Every time Trump repeats this, it gets a little more surreal. When he first stumbled into this minefield last fall, he <a href=\"\/news\/trump-endorses-defunding-planned-parenthood-denies-past-waffling\/\">backpedaled and left it at that<\/a>. But now, while he\u2019s at least <a href=\"http:\/\/hotair.com\/archives\/2016\/02\/18\/trump-ill-sign-a-bill-to-defund-planned-parenthood\/\">explicitly endorsed full defunding<\/a>, he still goes out of his way to praise Planned Parenthood for their supposed good deeds\u2014and do so in terms extravagant enough that Cecile Richards <a href=\"http:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2016\/02\/24\/planned-parenthood-prez-thanks-trump-for-his-kind-words-video\/\">goes on TV to thank him<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has <em>someone<\/em> in his campaign knowledgeable enough to give him things like <a href=\"\/news\/trump-i-was-joking-about-putting-pro-abortion-sister-on-supreme-court\/\">Bill Pryor&#8217;s name<\/a> as a potential judicial nominee, but not on how Planned Parenthood\u2019s \u201cwonderful\u201d services have been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativereview.com\/commentary\/2015\/09\/a-comprehensive-guide-to-planned-parenthood-funding\">steadily declining<\/a> over the years while their abortions increase? That they <a href=\"\/news\/mammosham-watch-the-viral-video-exposing-planned-parenthood-false-mammogram-claims\/\">don&#8217;t do mammograms<\/a>? That it\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.secularprolife.org\/2016\/02\/the-good-things-planned-parenthood-does.html\">wildly tone-deaf<\/a> to praise an evil organization\u00a0for the tiny sliver of good it does\u00a0on the side?<\/p>\n<p>Trump also brought up his <a href=\"\/news\/trump-i-was-joking-about-putting-pro-abortion-sister-on-supreme-court\/\">now-discarded suggestion<\/a> that might put his sister, Third Circuit Judge Maryanne Trump Barry, despite her ruling to uphold partial-birth abortion:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">It&#8217;s wonderful to stand up for two days and do that. Now, Ted&#8217;s been very critical &#8212; I have a sister who&#8217;s a brilliant&#8230; excuse me. She&#8217;s a brilliant judge. He&#8217;s been criticizing &#8212; he&#8217;s been criticizing my sister for signing a certain bill. You know who else signed that bill? Justice Samuel Alito, a very conservative member of the Supreme Court, with my sister, signed that bill. So I think that maybe we should get a little bit of an apology from Ted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While judges obviously do not \u201csign bills,\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/2006\/01\/24\/5081976\/judging-samuel-alito-on-abortion-rights\">Alito did write a concurring opinion<\/a> in that case, reaching the same conclusion to overturn the ban. However, it\u2019s worth noting that Alito\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/documents\/2006\/jan\/alitodocuments\/plannedparenthood2000.pdf\">opinion<\/a> was somewhat different (it actually opens with the words, \u201cI do not join Judge Barry\u2019s opinion\u201d)\u2014she <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/corner\/423196\/trump-praises-his-sister-pro-abortion-extremist-judge-ramesh-ponnuru\">opposed the ban on the &#8220;merits&#8221; and explicitly sought to protect <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em><\/a>, while he merely argued the court was bound by the most recent Supreme Court precedent (namely <em>Stenberg v. Carhart<\/em>). In any event, Alito making the wrong decision does not translate to Barry making the right one.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Ted Cruz pledged twice to hold Planned Parenthood accountable for their <a href=\"\/news\/a-guide-to-how-planned-parenthood-is-breaking-the-law\/\">fetal organ trafficking crimes<\/a>, the first time contrasting himself with Trump and the second making it a main point of his closing statement:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">You know, this is another issue on which Donald and I have sharp disagreements. On Planned Parenthood, he thinks Planned Parenthood is wonderful. I would instruct the Department of Justice to investigate them and prosecute any and all criminal violations [\u2026] If I&#8217;m elected president, on the first day in office I will rescind every single illegal and unconstitutional executive action. I will instruct the Department of Justice to open an investigation into Planned Parenthood and prosecute any criminal violations.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abortion got a few mentions during Thursday night\u2019s CNN-Telemundo debate between the Republican presidential candidates, though for the most part it simply reiterated ground that had been repeatedly visited in previous debates.
