On Wednesday 30th March, Donald Trump had a pre-taped ‘town hall’ withChris Matthews on US station MSNBC.

His statements about abortion have sparked debate and criticism, as it remains a divisive issue in the United States where different states have different laws about pregnancy termination, and 1 in 3 American women have abortions by the age of 45.Trump has now clarified the statement, by issuing this press release on his campaign website:
Donald Trump on Abortion
Many notable people and organisations have reacted, including U.S. Democrat presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, popular right wing author Ann CoulterPlanned Parenthood and Olympic medalist now CNN political commentator Sally Kohn. See their tweets below.
Just when you thought it couldn't get worse. Horrific and telling  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.
Remember: If you make abortion a crime, you make women who seek abortions criminals. You put one in three women at risk.
To be clear, @realDonaldTrump is now inciting violence against women for making a decision that's theirs to make.
It doesn't matter who is criminalized @realDonaldTrump, women need access to safe and legal abortion. #NeverTrump


In Support for Trump

And Republican frontrunner Donald Trump wants to punish them. Has anyone actually read Trump abortion transcript? Matthews browbeats Trump; Trump agrees to some vague punishment.

Religious conservatives: We will not even accept a fine. (We aren't THAT against abortion if we can bash Trump.)
