Republicans united on Trump, divided on abortion

Republican National Convention delegates approved a platform that barely mentions abortion — a stark contrast to previous party positions. VOA’s chief national correspondent Steve Herman reports that this softer stance on abortion is aimed at making Donald Trump more appealing to undecided voters.

Maybe moderate how much you are willing to let pregnant women die. Shouldn’t the mom’s life at least equal that of the fetus? Some European countries tried to implement these draconian laws and young women just refused to get pregnant until a full range reproductive healthcare was available for them.
