    Businessman Donald Trump faltered when responding to a series of questions on abortion that saw NBC reporter Savannah Guthrie attempt to challenge him on the so-called right to privacy the Supreme Court invented to create a “right” to abortion.

    “Is there a right to privacy in the Constitution?” Guthrie asked Trump.

    “I guess there is, I guess there is. And why, just out of curiosity, why do you ask that question?” Trump responded, his tone of voice changing to one of skepticism.

    Guthrie asked Trump how his newfound pro-life view “squares” with the so-called privacy right and Trump replied to the question with an answer that made it appear he doesn’t understand the legal arguments underpinning the abortion debate.

    He said, “Well, that’s a pretty strange way of getting to pro-life. I mean, it’s a very unique way of asking about pro-life. What does that have to do with privacy? How are you equating pro-life with privacy? ”

    NBC’s Guthrie then said, “well, you know about the Roe v. Wade decision” and Trump appeared to finally understand the context of the question. “Yes, right sure,” he said. “Look, I am pro-life. I’ve said it. I’m very strong there.”
    To be fair to Trump, I still don't understand how 'privacy', which is not a right guaranteed by the Constitution as far as I understand, equates to abortion being okay but whatever.

      While I agree with the widely held view that this is just attention-whoring at its most obvious, I'm starting to think Trump may actually run. He certainly has sufficient quantities of ego and self-delusion.

      In the past, I may have been bemused, but this is a country where Austrian bodybuilders, professional wrestlers, and other bad actors have held high elected office. It makes me a little afraid.

        It not that he thinks that the equation is strange that's problem, it's that he seems to have no freaking clue about the basic logic of Roe v. Wade, which makes him look ignorant.

            Difference is that Schwarzenegger actually has credible political beliefs. You'd have to be an idiot to think Reagan was a crank extremist the vein of Trump.

                I didn't mention names for a reason, as a few of these celebrity candidates have worked out reasonably well. That said, Schwarzenegger's reign has been a fiscal and political disaster.

                  God damnit.

                  Yall gave me a dream about Trump!

                  In it, some crackhead homeless guy was shooting a shotgun at the front of a house a few doors down so I called the police... they sent Trump

                  He had some unknown conversation with the guy with some sort of inspirational message at the end about fighting the man or using the right tool for the job or something. And the dream ended with the homeless crackhead pointing his shotgun at me, me grabbing the barrel, and fighting to point it away from me and away from bystanders all while I was screaming "TRUMP!!!" to the Donald who was walking away.

                  I think my dream may be a metaphor and a prophecy

                      Knowing Trump it's more likely to be Trump/Trump in 2012 Insert whichever zombie male son for the VP position. Unless he wants to do the smart thing and use his daughter, who would have to attract more votes.

                          It means you're a moron. It's so obvious that no one figured you really wanted the answer.
