His Abortion Stand is Tricky

Abortion rights?
How stands Donald Trump?
Is he right or left?
Or just on the campaign stump?

Does he really care?
Or does he just want your vote?
There's a lot here to take in
So here's what you should note

Go back far enough
Say to 1999
He said he was "very pro-choice"
Which means abortion's fine

Go back 10 years further
You'll find him of the same voice
He co-sponsored a celebration
For a leader of a group that was pro-choice

But bouncing forward to 2011
Now he flips his cards
Or does he?
He tries traveling down two streets at once
Two different boulevards

"I'm very pro-choice"
He tells Meet the Press
But I hate "the concept of abortion"
Now it's starting to get confusing
Just what is his real emotion?

Then 2016 comes up
And he's again running for president
For any woman who gets one, he says
There should be "some form of punishment"

Hours later, he does a switcheroo 
Let's not prosecute the women, he says
When punishing the doctors ought to do

This is the guy who appointed three judges
And got Roe v. Wade overturned
That really bothered a lot of women
They really were concerned

Now here we are in 2024
He's running for president again
And greedily wanting both sides of the vote
He figures a way to take them all in

So what to do, right or left
Which does he choose?
He tries to claim both the votes
'Cause he doesn't want to lose

Let the states decide just what will be
Yes, that would be the best
Opening up the chance again
For abortions to be blessed

He went after the voters that want states' rights
As well as those that want pro-choice
Leaving people laughing at him
'Til their eyes were getting moist
