You're purposely misunderstanding. An abortion can't be done on a woman actively in labor or after a baby is born. That is infanticide.
"When we talk about third-trimester abortions, these are done with the consent of, obviously, the consent of the mother, with the consent of the physicians -- more than one physician, by the way -- and it's done in cases where there may be severe deformities. There may be a fetus that's non-viable."
"If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen," Northam said. "The infant would be delivered, the infant would be kept comfortable, the infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired. And then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother."

The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”
The interviewer brought up Monday’s committee hearing, during which Democratic delegate Kathy Tran, the chief sponsor of the bill, stated that her legislation would allow a woman to receive an abortion even while she was going into labor.

In his full answer on WTOP, Northam explains that third trimester abortions are “done in cases where there may be severe deformities, there may be a fetus that’s nonviable.” He then gives the hypothetical example about a mother in labor.
.........
“Trump just posted this video of former VA Governor Ralph Northam supporting ‘post-birth abortions’ aka infanticide.

Many posts on multiple platforms quote Northam before stating: “In other words, the Baby would be executed after birth! ALWAYS REMEMBER - THE DEMOCRATS ARE THE RADICALS ON ABORTION.”
But Northam was only addressing what happens in cases where a baby is born with severe deformities and has a low chance of survival.

Sigh. His statement before the often quoted one is left out. It discusses this situation with a non viable fetus. So it could technically have a beating heart when in active labor and possibly shortly after being born. However it will not survive.

Again, this is what he said before the often quoted statement.
It appears you are incorrect in your last post as you just took the statement you were told happened without actually knowing the full statement.
Again, a decision between the doctor and mother regarding palliative care or extreme medical intervention on an infant that is not viable.
That so many men believe women with wanted pregnancies are willy nilly trying to kill infants after they are born is amazing.

Yes. Trump lied. He lied by saying that Democrats are advocating for abortion after birth. Trump keeps repeating it, and you guys keep reposting it, but it's still a lie.
“If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen,” he continued. “The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”
What is your problem with the above statement? In Northam's hypothetical example? It's always what's done "in cases where there may be severe deformities." What would you rather have happen? What do you think should happen?
The interviewer brought up Monday’s committee hearing, during which Democratic delegate Kathy Tran, the chief sponsor of the bill, stated that her legislation would allow a woman to receive an abortion even while she was going into labor.
This proposed law would have allowed for the doctors of that woman, who is in labor with a fetus with severe deformities to perform an abortion with the woman is in labor, rather than force her to give birth, only to watch her fetus writhe in pain and eventually die a slow painful death.
Here is Northam saying how a late term abortion in such a case as discussed above are traditionally done NOW.

Wouldn't making states responsible for their own abortion laws have a greater guarantee that it couldn't be prohibited nation wide by some tyrant?

So Trump said exactly what Northam said, but because you feel Northam meant something different, that makes what Trump said a lie? It doesn't work that way. Even in clown world. If you say it, it's been said.

Seriously? You are purposely being obtuse. It was not a stand alone statement. You can see that. You choose not to. Ah well, continue in your delusions. Must be the only way to keep that serotonin and anger going. Have fun.

NO. Trump misrepresented what Northam said, when Northam explained what already happens, every day, when a woman gives birth to an infant with deformities incompatible with life.
Trump conflated that statement into Northam advocating for doctors and parents discussing the murder of, presumably, a perfectly health but unwanted infant. He lied. He keeps lying, and you guys keep repeating the lie, even after being corrected time after time.

He’ll likely get a second go at things though, so I’m curious how that will go.
I predict the greatest economy known to man. Better than any other economy. the greatest.

I realize your post is likely a bit tongue-in-cheek, but to be perfectly candid...if Trump can even just save us from complete bankruptcy and collapse as a nation, at this point, he will have become one of the greatest presidents in history. I don't even care if it's the 'greatest economy in the world', I just hope it's still an 'economy' at all, and everything we've worked for, for an entire career, isn't lost. If he can accomplish that, he'll be the greatest in my book.
