Social Conservative in Name Only: A Real Conservative Wouldn’t Have Screwed Up on Abortion Question the Way Trump Did

“Three positions in three hours.”

Ted Cruz has long said that Donald Trump has no depth to his platform, and yesterday seemed to prove it.

Because Trump has supported both sides of this issue, it’s not surprising at all that he misstated his position on the abortion issue, then had to clarify things twice.  Now he’s got abortion rights supporters, anti-abortion foes and everybody in between howling about how he’s got things wrong.

A true abortion foe wouldn’t have made that kind of mistake.  And now he’s got a wedge issue that may really hurt his campaign in the coming weeks.

My reservations about Trump’s viability as a Presidential contender continue to grow by the day.
