Donald Trump's Arguments Against The Abortion Debate

464 Words2 Pages

The topic of abortion has long been a controversial issue. An abortion is a medical procedure that is used to terminate a pregnancy and cause death to the embryo. Both presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump take on different sides on this sensitive issue. Donald Trump is pro life he is against the practice of abortion. Hillary Clinton on the other hand, is pro choice she supports that women should have a right to a safe legal abortion. While abortion may affect a woman physically and mentally it can also, affect the family and community depending on how one looks at it. Presidential candidate Hillary has very strong view on abortion. According, to her website she strongly believes in protecting women’s health and reproductive …show more content…

According to a Huffington post article titled “Donald Trump Promises To Appoint Anti-Abortion Justices To Supreme Court” Donald trump states the best way to ban abortion is to vote for him. Furthermore, he states if he became president he would appoint Supreme Court justices who would more than likely overturn Roe vs. Wade. Additionally, Trump stated,” Women should face some sort of punishment for having an abortion”. In a Life News article it states that Trump promised to de-fund planned parent hood. He also, opposes taxpayers funding contraception and abortions. I stand with Hillary on this particular issue. All women should have the option to decide what is best for them. It is 2016 and women’s rights should not be under attacked. Women should have control over her reproductive rights. We would be taking a step back if we got rid of Roe vs. Wade. Additionally, having taxpayers fund contraceptives and abortions can be a positive thing for all women especially women in poverty. Not all women have the financial outlet to pay for contraceptives and abortion. Without access to basic reproductive rights for women we could be taken back to a dark time again of illegal

    I also believe that through family planning, women’s health approves and so does the status of women in the community. Their health and status approves since women have access to Planned Parenthood where they are empowered to make educated decisions about sexual and reproductive health. Planned Parenthood clinics serve a majority of women receiving publicly funded contraceptive services and no longer having these clinics would play key roles in many women’s lives. By defunding Planned Parenthood, women will have to find new places to get contraceptives but they may not find a place they can afford and, in turn, don’t feel the need to continue using contraceptives. By not practicing safe sex, women are in danger

  • Health Benefits Of Planned Parenthood

    One of the most effective and crucial programs for women’s health is currently under attack by the so-called president of the United States, Donald Trump. In an attempt to convince the people that he is willing to stand up for everyone, including the unborn, but instead, Mr. Trump is oppressing women and taking away their rights as human beings. Without Planned Parenthood, 2.5 million men and women would be left without affordable, high-quality health care. One in five women have visited a Planned Parenthood in their lifetime. The fact that all of the care and help Planned Parenthood gives can all be lost due to something as petty as abortion services is almost laughable.

    From 1848 to 1920, an outrageous span of 70 years, women fought for equal rights, to have their voices and opinions heard. Little by little women have gained rights they have so passionately fought for. In 1973, about 50 years after women became eligible to vote, and began to be taken more seriously, the case of Roe v Wade granted women to have one of the most impactful rights to date, to terminate an unwanted pregnancy. Now, it is safe to say that all women and perhaps most men would not want women to lose the rights they have today, especially because there have been many influential women around the world who have been given the chance to be impactful because of the rights they possess. So, if we do not want to take away women’s rights and

    Not all of those who are pro-life believe that an abortion could not be allowed very early on in the pregnancy. The Roe vs. Wade case decided that an abortion would be allowed in certain circumstances because of the right of privacy given in the Fourteenth Amendment. During the third trimester, the state could become more involved and would only allow an abortion if not doing so would endanger the woman’s health or life. The current ruling of Roe vs. Wade stands, although Trump wishes to contest the

    They believe that the Planned Parenthood clinic is immoral and has even been called a “scandal-plagued organization” by Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA), because of their “lack of compassion towards women and unborn children.” Congress claims that there will be no reduction to the funding of women’s health, only that it will go to a clinic that does not provide abortion services. The problem with this new plan is that many low-income women rely on Planned Parenthood for most of their healthcare services, and defunding the clinic would leave these women with no service. Although Republican congressmen claim that there are 9,000 other clinics around the country that provide women’s healthcare without providing abortions, they are still diminishing the amount of services that women have around the country. Not to mention that abortion is a basic and essential health need for women all around the world.

    Representative Jason Chaffetz of Utah opened the hearing by enlightening everybody about how 1,500 people die everyday in the U.S. from cancer, implying that women are using up the money available for cancer research on their birth control pills. Another republican suggested that Planned Parenthood’s money would be better spent at the Boys and Girls club. The majority of Planned Parenthood’s funding is from Medicaid. These republicans could not explain how the Boys and Girls club could help women who need, say, a Pap Smear. In a recent Rolling Stone article, Amanda Marcotte explained that, like the argument about mammograms, they were implying that women shouldn't use Planned Parenthood’s “slutty health care” in the first place.

    Donald Trump believes, “‘banning all federal taxpayer funding of abortions will save the lives of over one million Americans from abortions’”(Steven). This statement is false and inaccurate. Instead of those women going and getting an abortion safely carried out at Planned Parenthood, she will go get an abortion in a more dangerous way ultimately putting her life at risk too, which will lead to higher deaths. As Taylor Jacobs said in the article on the Odyssey online, “ Regardless of your personal opinions regarding abortions, it is not possible to stop every woman from getting the procedure if they are unprepared to have a child, no matter what programs are defunded. Thousands of women die from unsafe abortions per year and defunding Planned Parenthood would make getting an abortion even more difficult and likely increase the numbers of deaths.”
