I'm acting like Planned Parenthood isn't supported by most conservatives. But is supported by Trump.
He did not say he supported them. He pointed out to Hannity that only about 3% of what they do is abortion-related... they DO provide many valuable services for women... that's all he said. Now... Is he WRONG or RIGHT? Forget about "Conservative" for a minute and answer the question.
He's certainly expressed support for continued federal funding for planned parenthood's operations that he says are 'good'. Which puts him in start opposition to the rest of the GOP field.
In an interview with Chris Cuomo on CNN’s “New Day" on Tuesday, Trump said, "the biggest problem I have with Planned Parenthood is the abortion situation,” he said. “It's like an abortion factory. You can't have it and you shouldn't be funding it and that should not be funded by the government.”
But he continued by saying he wouldn't necessarily defund the organization.
“If the time came, I would look at the individual things that they do and maybe some of the things are good, and maybe -- I know a lot of the things are bad,” Trump said. “I would look at the good aspects of it and I would also look because I'm sure they do some things properly and good and good for women.”

And since the Federal government doesn't fund abortions but instead the 'good things for women', problem solved for 'president trump'.
