@AG_Conservative Yeah, that's right Chris. That baby is attacking it's mom from the inside. I can't believe it. #SMH

Chris Christie made waves on Saturday night when he suggested at the GOP debate that abortion following rape or incest could be considered “self-defense”:
“I believe that if a woman has been raped, that is a pregnancy that she should be able to terminate. If she is a victim of incest, this is not a woman’s choice, this is a woman being violated,” Christie said.
He continued: “The fact is that we have always believed, as has Ronald Reagan, that we have self defense for women who have been raped and impregnated because of it or been victims of incest and been impregnated for it. I believe that they do not have to deliver that child if they believe that is an act of self defense by terminating that pregnancy.”
Many pro-life tweeters wondered what he was thinking when he said that. But today in New Hampshire, he doubled down:
Chris Christie defends his anti-abortion stance of exceptions for rape, incest as an "act of self-defense."

This goes beyond politics. Christie's portrayal of innocent babies as attackers is despicable. https://t.co/M5Gx8BiIwE
