Germantown Reproductive Health Service in Maryland ― has permanently closed (http://abortionpages.com/?ncid=edlinkushpmg00000313). The Washington Post was the first to report (https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/social-issues/maryland-provider-of-late-term-abortions-under-contract-to-be-purchased-by-antiabortion-group/2017/08/25/78f91b94-89ac-11e7-a50f-e0d4e6ec070a_story.html?utm_term=.6f5ca041b33f&ncid=edlinkushpmg00000313) that the Germantown clinic is under contract to be purchased by the anti-abortion group the Maryland Coalition for Life

The Post reports (https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/social-issues/maryland-provider-of-late-term-abortions-under-contract-to-be-purchased-by-antiabortion-group/2017/08/25/78f91b94-89ac-11e7-a50f-e0d4e6ec070a_story.html?utm_term=.ef84e5d22207&ncid=edlinkushpmg00000313) that the group raised funds to make an offer to buy out the current owners of the property who also ran a second clinic that did not offer later abortions.

“The Germantown clinic is one of only three in the country that provides abortions later in pregnancy,” Dr. Carolyn Sufrin, an OB-GYN and member of Physicians for Reproductive Health, the advocacy group, told HuffPost.

Ya, Trump may have won this one and saved quite a few lives, but that isn't enough.

How do you give Dump credit for this?

The Germantown clinic is under contract to be purchased by the anti-abortion group the Maryland Coalition for Life

The group raised funds to make an offer to buy out the current owners of the property

If things were going in the other direction and more types of abortion was becoming more available, then purchasing an abortion clinic would make a lot less sense if your goal was to reduce abortion. They would just go somewhere else.

The perception, at least, is that Trump is against abortion, against funding abortion, has already made one and may have more Supreme Court picks coming up and that helps people on both sides plan accordingly.

This is the kind of stretch that makes so many members of this site give you no credit when you are right about Dump, giving him credit for things he had nothing to do with destroys your credibility.

Ok, fine. Trump didn't do anything if that makes you feel better. The people who elected him made it happen.

If you actually believe this would have happened if Hillary were President and we already had 50 million women's health bills shoved down our throat, I think you are completely nutso.

A lot us here understand that there are a lot of things that are infinitely better with Trump as President, not just because of what he does, but simply because he is President, and Hillary isn't.

Wasn't trump pro-abortion before he was "against" it??

If anything this is a victory for pro life people (and babies) despite trump, not because of him.

The country was turning less pro-abortion even under Obama despite the leftist running the government. Sometimes I wonder if you're trolling or really have gone batshit crazy.

I was still on the fence if you were trolling with your Trump-mania or not... But now you've over played your hand, dumbass.

Oops.

Have you ever changed your mind about anything?

Trump was strongly anti-abortion in his campaign and signaled that he wanted the government to stop funding it and was going to pick pro-life supreme court justices. He has already made progress and been successful in that area. That is a very strong signal of the direction things are headed, that is the only thing that is important here.

It doesn't matter what the sentiment of the country is, especially when it is still around 50/50.. If the government is passing women's healthcare funding bills and moving in the direction in funding more abortion then using your capital to invest in purchasing an abortion clinic is not going to make any difference. Because of the direction we are going, with Trump, the Supreme Court and his views on funding abortion it actually made sense for them to do it in this case.
