An Abortion Provider Debunks Trump's Debate Talking Points

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : Abortion in the first trimester is basically a procedure that lasts five minutes.
42% : On Wednesday morning, I caught up with Dr. Matthew Reeves, an abortion provider with two decades of experience and the founder of DuPont Clinic in Washington, D.C., one of a handful of clinics across the country that offer abortions later in pregnancy, about the misinformation Trump spread in the debate and what the public gets wrong about second- and third-trimester abortions.
42% : "Trump went off the deep end," Reeves tells me.
38% : Practically, does any state allow that? Abortion does not extend to after birth.
33% : Trump did mention last night that he supports exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the pregnant person.
31% : Trump would like to paint a picture of people just walking into labor and delivery at nine months and saying, "I want an abortion!"
25% : Trump repeatedly refers to these comments to argue that "post-birth abortions" occur in this country (and last night, he incorrectly attributed them to the "West Virginia governor").
