Really: Planned Parenthood Criticizes Trump For His Treatment of Crying Baby

I wasn't going to write on this silly story, but now that Planned Parenthood has chimed in, their lack of self awareness needs to be noted.

GOP nominee Donald Trump received some flak for asking a mom and her crying baby to exit his rally this week in Ashburn, VA. While at first joking he "loves babies" as the infant interrupted his remarks, he later said, "Actually I was only kidding. You can get the baby out of here."

His playful tone suggested he wasn't completely irate, but pundits criticized him for his supposed cruelty.

Then, Planned Parenthood chimed in on the attack.

I'm sure I don't have to remind you, but Planned Parenthood receives half a billion dollars every year to destroy families one abortion at a time. Although the number of abortions the organization performs has been decreasing, it is still well over 300,000 abortions annually. Meanwhile, its prenatal services continue to decline.

Right now, asking a mother to escort her baby out of a rally doesn't seem so bad.
