Greg donald trump said something controversial yet this time he is clarifying it. At a town hall meeting with chris matthews, chris was grilling him on abortion and got him to say women who have abortions, if abortions are considered illegal someday, should be penalized in some way. Thing, backtracked and tried to get himself out of a big mistake. Robert moses joins us with the latest trump comments that are getting everybody talking. 24 hours ago we thought the thing with his Campaign Manager would dominate the news cycle. Almost eclipsed that. Donald trump has made a habit of saying provocative things and struggled to appeal to women. These comments, prolife groups said they would never advocate the punishment of women who receive abortions. You believe in punishment for abortion yes or no is a principal . The answer is there has to be some form of punishment. To the woman . Yes, there has to be some swift bipartisan condemnation. Bernie sanders called them shameful. Hillary clinton described them as orphic and telling. What donald trump said today was outrageous and dangerous. Reporter trumps for the republicans criticizing too. Ted cruz said in a statement donald trump has demonstrated he hasnt seriously thought through the issues and he will say anything to get attention. John kasich who was in queens yesterday hit trump hard as well. Women shouldnt be punished. I think probably donald trump will figure out a way to say he didnt say a was misquoted or whatever, but i dont think so. I dont think that is an appropriate response and it is a difficult enough situation. People to come to trumps defense was chris christie. People misspeak all the time. With him everybody wants to make a bigger deal over it. Reporter a few hours after making his remarks trump backtracked. In a statement he said of abortion his band, the doctor or any other person performing this illegal act upon a woman would the woman. The woman is a victim in this case as is the wife in her womb.

Ben he is eating pizza with a knife and fork. I give him a pass on this one. We dont have many rules. Whatever floats your boat, do it. We cant see the good part where he puts the pizza in his mouth. Rosanna he started with a knife and fork, drop it and pick it up in your hands. Bill diblasio, knife and fork and donald trump did it, i get it because when i eat pizza with bread i have to take a four hour nap. He wanted didnt want to eat the bread but just the cheese.
