Red,
I believe in giving credit where it is due. In this case to both you and Trump, without a drop of irony, for telling it like it is about prosecuting women. To date the anti-choice line has held that the women are victims too.
Money quote in last paragraph:
The others were steadfastly silent on this side of it. Only you had the cojones to speak to it. We disagree as to the wisdom of these prosecutions, but agree that they will occur. I'd call that a breakthrough.

Money quote in last paragraph:
I asked Crane whether she was heartened by the widespread rejection of Trump’s improvised assertion that “there has to be some form of punishment” for women who abort. She told me she was not. “The anti-choice side was horrified, because they engage in the convenient political fiction that any woman who wants an abortion has been duped by society and culture,” Crane said. “But that’s an untenable position. Trump didn’t misspeak. He stumbled into the truth.”
