After his 7 Super Tuesday wins, Trump held a press conference instead of a victory speech. A variety of topics were covered, of which his ramblings grated on conservative ears, but one in particular stood out.
Remember back when conservatives were in the #DefundPP fight? Remember how we blasted an organization that could not only abort innocent babies with our tax money, but then dismember and SELL the parts for profit? We were outraged!
Well, last night, Donald Trump called us "so-called conservatives." Complete with air quotes. He sung the praises of Planned Parenthood in a way usually reserved for pro-abort, liberal feminists.
But, but, but...he did say he didn't want to fund it with "the abortion!" True, he did. I just don't believe him. His pro-life history is a short one. In the 47 second answer he gave on PP, he mentioned abortion ONCE. The rest was complimenting and justifying his support of the organization.
Too bad there are not thousands of community and women's health centers that actually provide more services, such as cancer screenings and mammograms, that concern women's health. Oh wait! There are!

In any event, Trump consistently praises (more than he condemns) an organization that not only encourages women to terminate their pregnancies and seeks to sell the parts, but also gives 100% to liberal causes and politicians while receiving hundreds of millions from taxpayers. Bottom line, if this organization can afford to make political donations, then it doesn't need funding from the federal government.
That should be enough for any GOP candidate to denounce Planned Parenthood. Unfortunately, Trump will not. Just add it to the list of conservative principles and standards he rejects.
