Steel Magnificat reported this morning that the prolife policy on Trump\u2019s website has vanished.<\/a><\/p>\n

Now it is being reported that there never was a prolife policy proposal on his website. Nor is there any mention of abortion under his health care or child care proposals.<\/p>\n

Knock me over with a feather.<\/p>\n

But that won\u2019t keep \u201cprolife\u201d Trump supporters from overlooking this teeny flaw in his passionate \u201cprolife conversion\u201d and defending every right wing culture of death he champions, no matter how diametrically opposed to the Church\u2019s teaching. Because it is what the anti-abortion-but-not-prolife movement has been doing for years. Fighting the Church and using the unborn as human shields is, somehow, what the wholly owned subsidiary of the GOP called the \u201cprolife\u201d movement keeps ending up doing. Whether it\u2019s an unjust war, torture, the death penalty, contempt for refugees, denial of a just wage or defense of a sex predator, somehow the same mission creep sets in and the unborn get forgotten while these goals become the actual priority.<\/p>\n

Or we could stop play Lucy\/Charlie Brown football and just stop fighting the Church on behalf of these manipulators and focus our energy on fighting for the unborn.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
