![Wil Trump remember how Democrats voted during his re-election campaign?](https://winteryknight.files.wordpress.com/2019/02/trumpinfanticide-1.png?w=474&h=435)
Republicans introduced a bill in the Senate to require that doctors must provide medical care to babies BORN ALIVE during an abortion. There were 50 Republicans present for the vote. All 50 supported the bill. But 44 out 47 Democrats present voted for infanticide, including 6 who are running for President in 2020.
Here’s how McConnell introduced the bill: (H/T Pulpit & Pen)
But first, in a few hours the Senate will vote on advancing a straight-forward piece of legislation to protect newborn babies.
This legislation is simple. It would simply require that medical professionals give the standard care and treatment to newborn babies who have survived an attempted abortion as any other newborn baby would receive in any other circumstances.
It isnt about new restrictions on abortion. It isn’t about changing options available to women. It’s just about recognizing that a newborn baby is a newborn baby, period.
This Bill would make clear that in the United States of American, in the year 2019, the medical professionals on-hand when a baby is born alive need to maintain their basic ethical and professional responsibilities to that newborn.
It would make sure our laws reflect the fact that the human rights of newborn boys and girls are innate. They don’t come and go based on whatever the circumstances. If that medical professional comes face-to-face with a baby who’s been born alive, they are looking at a human being with human rights, period.
So how did it go? Well, all the Republicans in the Senate voted for it. And none of them voted against it. The bill failed, though. It failed because 44 Democrat senators voted against it, and it needs 60 votes to pass.
What I think is interesting from a strategic point of view is that 6 of the 44 senators who voted against it are running for President.
Here are the 6, maybe 7, Democrat senators running for President:
- Cory Booker
- Kirsten Gillibrand
- Kamala Harris
- Amy Klobuchar
- Elizabeth Warren
- Bernie Sanders
- Sherrod Brown (maybe)
If one of those candidates ends up being the Democrat nominee, Trump will be able to use their vote on this infanticide bill in debates and in election ads.
And it’s not just these Democrat Presidential candidates – infanticide is now the mainstream view of most Democrat politicians.
Life News reports that more states are introducing legislation to remove all restrictions on abortion:
New York, Vermont, New Mexico and now Rhode Island politicians are pushing radical pro-abortion legislation that could legalize the killing of unborn babies for basically any reason up to birth in their states.
Earlier this week, Rhode Island lawmakers introduced legislation to keep abortion legal and unrestricted if the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, the AP reports.
It was just New York, Virginia, Rhode Island, New Mexico and Vermont at the end of January.
But in February, Illinois can be added to the list:
“The Democratic supermajority’s proposals now pending in the Illinois General Assembly are the most pro-abortion legislative measures of their type in the country,” said Peter Breen, Vice President and Senior Counsel for the Thomas More Society, and former Illinois House Minority Floor Leader. “The barbaric procedures promoted by this legislation are nothing short of infanticide. These bills go well beyond the recent New York law and would turn Illinois into a third-trimester abortion destination and an underage abortion haven.”
Will Democrat voters get on board with infanticide? I think some of their liberal special interest groups will. But think about how independents supported Trump’s opposition to infanticide in his State of the Union speech. I think that the Democrats are being forced to move their party too far to the left to win another election. All it takes is for pro-lifers to introduce legislation, have them vote on it, and then make the appropriate election ads.
No one can win a presidential by appealing only to their base. It comes down to who wins the independents. Trump is now the moderate candidate on social issues. The Democrats are pro-abortion extremists. They won’t win a majority of independents in a general election. They’ve just slid too far to the left.
That’s just plain horrific!

The same Bernie sanders that attacks Christian nominees for government because they may have a Christian belief votes for a despicable bill.
I didn’t know many of the democrat nominees could drop my opinion of them but voting to kill one’s that no one under any argument could claim it was not alive.
You don’t need a science study or degree to know if a living creature in your arms is alive.
But those same hypocrites will make you sound evil for an animal being used for medical research to save the lives of millions of humans.

One thing that should be noted here is that apparently even the pro-abortion Republican Senators voted FOR this bill. If that is true, then it should be clear that a pro-abortion person can distinguish abortion from infanticide.

Pro-abortion Republicans are just as reprehensible as pro-abort Dems…more so given they should know better. There is NO distinction between abortion and infanticide except for this:
Infanticide is the murder of innocent infants, whereas abortion is a means to accomplish that heinous act.

I agree 100%. No pro-aborts in Heaven.
I was only making a comment pertinent to the politics in play.
