Unintended Consequences

If there was ever a situation where political "unintended consequences" played out, perhaps this takes the cake..... I wondered for years what might be the most consequential outcome for the Democratic Party's decades of increasingly intolerant and rabid support for abortion and I guess Trump's win was the most demonstrable outcome yet to materialize.

Since Hillary lost her second (and last?) chance at the White House due to a relative handful of votes going for Trump in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, this article's author did some number-crunching and found it quite possibly came down to the aborted babies making the difference between a Hillary win and a Trump win. Of course, this is impossible to prove but it sure is an interesting take on why/how Trump won.

The Left's Own Goal

Applied to Wisconsin, that means that in the 25 years under consideration, abortion providers can be projected to have eliminated 151,740 black, 80,085 Hispanic, and 155,955 white potential voters.

If they had shown up at the polls in November and followed national polling averages regarding candidates and racial preferences, 88% of the blacks would have voted for Hillary and 8% for Trump, 65% of the Hispanics would have voted for Hillary and 29% for Trump, and 58% of the whites would have voted for Trump compared to 37% for Hillary.

In other words, had those babies been protected rather than aborted, had they all shown up to vote (admittedly a stretch) and if national patterns of abortion by race and voting by race held true, Trump would have netted an additional total of about 125,000 black, white and Hispanic voters to add to his 2016 total. Hillary would have gained a net of just shy of 243,000 additional black, white and Hispanic voters.

Added to their respective vote totals of November (1,409,467 Trump vs. 1,382,210 Hillary) Clinton would have carried Wisconsin by a total of 1,625,201 to 1,534,467, or more than 90,000 votes.

If the same scenario is applied to Trump’s narrow wins in states like Michigan or Pennsylvania, where the percentage of black and Hispanic voters is considerably higher than in Wisconsin, the conclusion is inescapable: The Democrats themselves, in their role as the obedient legislative lapdogs of Planned Parenthood, pursued policies that aborted Hillary out of ‘her shot’ at the White House. By successfully producing in the United States one of the world’s most inhumane and unregulated systems of abortion law, they ensured the success of their opponents.
