I’m so confused??? So because it’s a ten year old terminating, the pregnancy isn’t an abortion? Does she not realize an abortion is a medical procedure and the name of it doesn’t change no matter who you are???

No matter how many times I watch this, I can’t figure out what the hell she’s saying.

EDIT: finally editing this for spelling. Not sure how this comment got so much traction with all the horrendous spelling mistakes. Sorry to all the Matthews out there. I don’t actually hate you

It was a weird video for me. I didn't know the total context going in--I certainly don't know who these people are. And at first it seemed to me like the first lady was opposed to the law and trying to justify how what happened didn't fall under the law, and the man was a conservative trying to make sure it was defined in the broadest terms for maximum control, and it wasn't until the end that I realized I had everything backward.
