“The laws are set now on abortion,” NBC went on to quote Trump as having said in the CBS interview, “and that’s the way they’re going to remain until they’re changed.”
You will only hear what you want to hear. Trump said more but it doesn’t matter to you.

By the way, the finger wagging is very annoying.

I will only hear what I want to hear? Check out this statement from the National Right to Life Committee, who also only hear what they want to hear:
The following is a statement from Dave Andrusko of National Right to Life on the support for Cruz:

In the week preceding the Board’s vote, Donald Trump first said on Wednesday that were abortion illegal he would “punish” women who had aborted. He said later the same day he wouldn’t punish these women.

Then, on Friday in a clip from an interview with “Face the Nation” moderator John Dickerson that would air Sunday, Trump said, “The laws are set now on abortion and that’s the way they’re going to remain until they’re changed,” adding, “At this moment, the laws are set and I think we have to leave it that way.”

Code: 
Then, on Friday, after the clip aired, the Trump campaign issued another statement: “Mr. Trump gave an accurate account of the law as it is today and made clear it must stay that way now — until he is president,” it read. “Then he will change the law through his judicial appointments and allow the states to protect the unborn. There is nothing new or different here.”

As reported in NRL News Today, Mr. Trump has said Planned Parenthood does “some good work” but would defund it.

National Right to Life believes Sen. Cruz is the only candidate for president who has always been pro-life, who has a 100% pro-life voting record with National Right to Life, who can win the Republican nomination, and who can defeat pro-abortion Hillary Clinton in November.

They can go support a losing candidate all they want. Trump never said, “pro-abortion laws shouldn’t be changed.”

You really do enjoy those emoticons, don’t you?

What’s a personal attack? Calling cruz a losing candidate? Or mentioning your like of emoticons?

Well, what does either have to do with Trump’s statement that abortion laws must remain in place? (Yes, I agree another statement was issued *after that *by the campaign, a corrective statement). The fact that major right-to-life organizations have responded to these flip-flop statements by coming forward with a statement supporting Ted Cruz?

That is the problem with Trump. Whatever he says he says something different right after that. He is on every side of every issue.

He didn’t come with a later statement to clarify. Watch the video

youtube.com/watch?v=3Gj6-3FS_Vg

Here is the NBC script:

nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/trump-makes-new-comments-abortion-laws-are-set-n549526

At this moment the laws are set. And I think we have to leave it that way," Trump told CBS’ “Face the Nation” host John Dickerson in an interview that will air Sunday.

"The laws are set now on abortion and that’s the way they’re going to remain until they’re changed," Trump said at another point in the interview.
What he said, the two sentences were right after one another. His words should be taken as a whole.

There is absolutely no way you can say trump said abortion laws must not be changed. That’s a LIE.
 
Ted Cruz Wins Wisconsin:thumbsup:

"You will hear spin that because it was expected, it’s not a big loss to Donald Trump, but that is not true. These delegates matter a great deal and this is a big blow to Trump’s chances of getting to the convention with 1237.

Here are the early numbers: With 20% of precincts reporting, Ted Cruz has a 21 point lead over Trump, at 51.6% to 30.6%. Kasich is at 15.5%.

Remember there are 42 delegates up for grabs here. A huge prize. The apportionment is described here by Dan Spencer.

This post will be updated to include the latest numbers and the delegate tally as the night goes on.

So much for Donald’s big surprise."

Glory to Ted Cruz! He won Wisconsin. Maybe he can ride the momentum all the way to the White House!
 
***Deep Thoughts from Wisconsin
:eek: What a strange Brew … er situation! Never sausage excitement!

Could Ted possibly ***beer *** next president?

Will cheeses always bless us? 🍕

Trump: Dairy keep speaking off the cuff?

:hmmm: If your judgement’s badger careless words – can lose you elections.

Future: Does Cruz have the Bucks?

Per the OTHER primary … after losing 6 of last 7 … time for someone to Packer bags?

Can Bernie butter aside?

On Fox* News they say this moves the possibility of a contested convention on the GOP side closer.

:blushing: Can’t milk this much further. Gimme a Kasich your coldest Blue Ribbon, load it in my motorboat and I’ll Cruz on outta here. :coolinoff:

** - Also the name of a river in Wisconsin.*

:o - Post ON fellow posters. And KNOW yours will not be the silliest. Take us back to substance if you wish. Or diplomatically avoid the rocks and rapids of controversy. 🤷

But keep it …

Moo

ving. :doh2:

Haha, Trump will most likely steamroll past Cruz before the Democrats will get a chance.

Regardless, congrats to Senator Ted Cruz on winning Wisconsin 👍
