I missed 90% of the Vice-Presidential debate last night, but I did catch the last bit on radio while driving home from writer's group. It was about abortion and Tim Kaine asked Mike Pence "why don't you trust women to make this choice for themselves?" He did not get an answer.
Kaine also pointed out that Trump (in my view logically, for an anti-abortion person) called for punishing women who get an abortion. Pence lied about what Trump said. What I didn't know is that Pence signed a bill that in fact punished women for getting abortions.
Trust. It should be a fundamental conservative value to trust people to decide for themselves about their bodies.
