How many abortions has the Trump administration prevented through his first year? During the eight years of the Obama administration, there was a decline in abortions....i assume that's continued and even accelerated under Trump?

As far as I can tell the only difference would be the other two could have done theirs while still in their bathrobes because there wasn't a visual element other then that it's not like he was there where the March was held, he was (I think) in the rose garden?Maybe the media isn't counting those because they were by phone? Tho Trump's was a livestream so not too much different. I was under the impression he was the first also.
My initial assumption was that the increased access to birth control that happened under the Obama administration through Obamacare was a positive factor in reducing abortion rates. I think that birth control, good sex ed, and access to health care are all things that significantly lower abortion rates.I look forward to you supporting your position showing exactly what Obama regulations or actions slowed the American Holocaust while he was in office.
...if only he would demonstrate respect for life.
well...first if you don't count President Reagan doing it while in office in 1987, or President Bush doing it in 2003. But yeah other then those two sitting Presidents, he's first.
Been here: March for Life (Washington, D.C.) - Wikipedia
tulc(totally the first)
Seems like a nice enough gesture but is it anything more than just that -- a nice gesture?Trump, Paul Ryan will speak at Friday's March for Life anti-abortion rally in D.C.
He is the only Sitting President to do so.
I don't believe the Republican party nor President Trump are pro-life. Their hypocrisy actually makes the fight for the unborn that much more difficult.

Expanding health insurance coverage and requiring health insurance to cover birth control and other family planning services, both of which Trump has chipped away at.
History is made! He’s the first to livestream to the event. Through snow and wind and icy weather, he didn’t allow those obstacles to deter his broadcast. His courageous and bold use of technology is.... well... ummm... beyond words.Maybe the media isn't counting those because they were by phone? Tho Trump's was a livestream so not too much different.

And how exactly did that reduce abortions?
Are you saying woman use abortion as a form of birth control?
Proof would be nice
...uhmmm...the less women that get pregnant the less they will think about getting an abortion. It's not rocket science. The more access women have to birth control and health care the less they think about abortion. It's not actually hard to see.And how exactly did that reduce abortions?
.......perhaps it is a little harder with that bell ringing in some peoples heads?Are you saying woman use abortion as a form of birth control?
Yes, yes it would.Proof would be nice

The Republicans I have met over the years stop being "pro-life" after a baby is born. Anyway, what you said in your post reminded me of this meme about being pro-birth and not pro-life.

We've had more comprehensive sex and health education increase since the 80s and 90s. The CDC reports fewer abortions since then even among teens despite that group having actually increased sexual activity recently.I’m asking for proof, studies not opinions.
Why did the rate of abortions skyrocket when birth control became more accessible in the 70’s and 80’s.
