'Pete Buttigieg Tells Woman Her Pro-Life Views Not Welcomed In Democrat Party
2020-01-28
[Daily Wire] Democrat presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg refused to tell a Democrat voter on Sunday that her pro-life views were welcomed in the party after being repeatedly pressed about the issue during a Fox News town hall event.

"I am a proud pro-life Democrat," Kristin Day, a member of the audience, told Buttigieg. "So, do you want the support of pro-life Democrats, pro-life Democratic voters? There are about 21 million of us, and if so, would you support more moderate platform language in the Democratic Party to ensure that the party of diversity and inclusion really does include everybody?"

"Well I respect where you’re coming from and I hope to earn your vote, but I’m not going to try to earn your vote by tricking you," Buttigieg responded. "I am pro-choice and I believe that a woman ought to be able to make that decision. I know that the difference of opinion that you and I have is one that we have come by honestly and the best that I can offer, and it may win your vote, and if not, I understand, the best I can offer is that if we can’t agree on where to draw the line, the next best thing we can do is agree on who should draw the line and in my view it’s the woman who’s faced with that decision in her own life."

Fox News host Chris Wallace interjected: "This is an interesting moment because President Trump spoke at the March to Life movement, he was the first president ever to actually appear at the March to Life movement, and I’m curious, Kristin, were you satisfied with the answer you got for the mayor?"

#3  Didn't think he had the right to answer that question unless he is the wife.

Still, better than suggesting she go spend some time out in the field with the basketball players.

#2  Bending Bear actually handled the lady's question rather well. Score one for the direct-commissioned Summer Soldier.
