I do wonder how many of you could see a living baby that escaped from an abortion and go ahead and kill it.
A living baby isn't aborted, it's born.

But sorry to say that is not the case in many situations where the infant survives an intended abortion.
You're horribly uninformed if that's what you believe. I can't help you, but I feel sorry that you have so little compassion for women who have such a difficult choice to make - a late term abortion. Especially since you yourself made a choice (abortion) yourself.

Nobody has any interest in the movie or any of the facts about abortion
We have the facts. This article from Slate has the answers for you, if you're interested. The whole thing is a good read, but this is the most relevant part for you:
Debate moderator: Do you think abortion should be legal up until the moment of birth?
Politician: First of all, no one is performing abortions up until the moment of birth. There is no such medical procedure”it’s a fiction dreamed up by right-wing extremists who want to take control of women’s bodies.
If a healthy woman with a healthy, full-term pregnancy asks a doctor to terminate that pregnancy”which, by the way, there is no evidence to suggest any woman is doing”the doctor would simply refuse.
In reality, less than 1 percent of abortions take place in the third trimester. Opponents of legal abortion would have you believe that these patients are hopelessly fickle women who simply change their minds about giving birth after eight months of pregnancy. That’s not only untrue”it’s offensive. These are women who are forced to make unimaginably painful decisions. They are women with preeclampsia, who are risking severe injury or death if they continue with what is in many cases a deeply wanted pregnancy. They are parents who discover in the third trimester that their fetus has grown its organs on the outside of its body or failed to develop a brain. Usually, if the fetus can survive outside the womb but a pregnancy will put the woman’s health is at risk, doctors will strive for a safe delivery, not abortion. But the choices women must make for their bodies, their families, and their health are complicated enough, and hard enough, without the cruel judgment and interference of politicians”mostly men”who have no knowledge of the personal and medical concerns that govern these patients’ lives. There can be no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to pregnancy and maternal health.
That’s why, as elected leaders, we should be fighting to increase access to quality health care, not trying to take it away”especially not by writing legislation based on imaginary scenarios that ignore the women’s lives that hang in the balance. Abortion care is essential health care, and the ability to choose whether and when to have children is an essential human right.
How pro-choice politicians should answer questions about third-trimester abortions.

Point flying right over Faith's head
Didn't read a bit of it, did you? What a silly, sad old woman you appear to be.

Racist actions?
Trump did not defend racists, did not use racist arguments and said nothing racist...
What if he performed racist acts? He basically admitted to it in the 1970's.
Racial views of Donald Trump - Wikipedia
'Testers from the New York City Human Rights Division had found that prospective black renters at Trump buildings were told there were no apartments available, while prospective White renters were offered apartments at the same buildings.
...
Three doormen testified to being told to discourage prospective Black renters by lying about the rental prices or claiming no vacancies were available.
...
A settlement was reached in 1975 where Trump agreed to familiarize himself with the Fair Housing Act, take out ads stating that Black renters were welcome, give a list of vacancies to the Urban League on a weekly basis, and allow the Urban League to present qualified candidates for 20% of vacancies in properties that were less than 10% non-White.'
Why would he have reached these kind of specific settlement terms, unless they had the goods on him?

Re: Racist actions?
None of that is racism except denying apartments to blacks...
Oh dear, that's your problem! You don't know what racism is!!!
I thought you might play the 'that was sooo long ago' card, but behold! She doesn't know the meaning of a word, again.
Sometimes you just blow my mind, Faith.

Racy photos?
From what I read, they were of his wife. Not sure I'd claim that as an indiscretion.

Re: Racy photos?
Well I’ve done the same for my husband expecting privacy. Don’t care if anyone thinks they’re kinky. If stolen & then used against him in all his work & in public view; it’s wrong.

Re: Racist actions?
Most undocumented immigrants overstayed their visas. But that doesn't whip up a crowd like the brown menace.
Y'know, I used to believe that too, but after reading this article in Slate I'm a tad more skeptical. Still need more information, though.
The White House is planning a travel ban on Trump’s shithole countries.
'Further undermining the administration’s collective punishment plan is the fact that overstays aren’t a major problem to begin with. Based on the government’s own data, last year DHS could confirm that 99.24 percent of foreign visitors had either “departed the United States on time and in accordance with the terms of their admission” or had left within the next six months.'

Re: Yes today's Left/Izquierdo really is Marxist, even Stalinist
I love Mark Levin
https://thehill.com/...rk-levin-i-would-never-vote-for-trump
Did you love him in April, 2016?
"Conservative radio host Mark Levin says he will not vote for Donald Trump in the general election because of Trump’s connection to controversial strategist Roger Stone.
"I'm not voting for Donald Trump. Period. . These bully, dirty tricks, Nixonian tactics, they're only going to backfire. So, count me as never Trump," Levin said Friday.
