Good morning, we watched the debate last night on ABC. We discussed it this morning, but everyone was in a rush so not much was said. Here is an analysis of the debate. We will start with the official ABC transcript (which is stated to be partial) and go from there. Abortion
I just found an interesting exchange on abortion. I will post the text (verbatim), and add some commentary at the end. Trump calls out Harris in a lie. FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Excuse me, I have to respond. Another lie. It's another lie. I have been a leader on IVF which is fertilization. The IVF -- I have been a leader. In fact, when they got a very negative decision on IVF from the Alabama courts, I saw the people of Alabama and the legislature two days later voted it in. I've been a leader on it. They know that and everybody else knows it. I have been a leader on fertilization, IVF. And the other thing, they -- you should ask, will she allow abortion in the eighth month, ninth month, seventh month? FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Would you do that? Why don't you ask her that question -- FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: That's the problem. Because under Roe v. Wade. FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: You could do abortions in the seventh month, the eighth month, the ninth month - VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS: That's not true. What I notice is that in Colorado, there is one of three functioning abortion clinics in the United States that does abortions at and after the 28th week (the 7th month) of a pregnancy. They have been doing this since the 1970s (Roe v. Wade timing). I read about it in Reuters yesterday, because they sometimes get a protester, and they have bullet proof glass. They will perform abortions in the 7th or 8th month of pregnancy. It isn't like they enjoy it (from the article), but they do it. One example was that the mother had an illness that she just learned about. In conclusion, it is true. Under Roe v. Wade, you can (and do) perform abortions in the seventh and eighth month, and in Colorado (and two other undisclosed locations), they still do.
