A couple of days ago, Trump made a horrific comment during an interview on MSNBC with Chris Matthews. He said that abortions should be “punished.” He has been trying to back-pedal on these comments, but no one is buying his BS. He has even managed to piss off pro-lifers who usually go after the doctors performing the procedure.
Hillary Clinton has said that Trump’s comments were “horrific and telling.” She had this to say when Trump tried to back off of those comments:
Maya Angelou said: "When people show you who they are, believe them." Trump can try to walk back his words, but we heard him loud and clear.

He is now accusing MSNBC of editing the report to make him look bad. NEWSFLASH: He can do that all on his own!
Trump did a phone interview for Fox News on The O’Reilly Factor where he made these comments about the MSNBC report:
“You really ought to hear the whole thing. This is a long convoluted question. This was a long discussion, and they just cut it out. And, frankly, it was extremely — it was really convoluted.”
“It could be that I misspoke. But this was a long, convoluted subject. We talked about Catholicism and his religion, and [Chris Matthews] went back and forth about that. This was a very long, convoluted discussion which, frankly, they don’t want on television because it was too long.”
He said multiple times that the conversation was long and convoluted. So that’s an excuse for making ugly comments, now? Long conversations don’t count? I’m calling total, absolute BS on you, Mr. Trump!
MSNBC has called out The Donald as a liar. They put out the following statement:
“The town hall interview with Donald Trump was taped in advance and then aired in its entirety. Absolutely no part of the exchange between Trump and Chris Matthews was edited out.”
You know you’ve done wrong when John Kasich says you went too far. Here is his response to the horribly bad abortion interview:
