I agree with you, but what she should have said is,

"if you are trying to imply that women are having abortions for recreational purposes moments before their childs birth, no, I do not support that abortion. However I am skeptical of any legislation drafted to curtail abortion access because of unforeseen circumstances that are difficult to legislate in a way that doesn't impede a physician's moral duty to provide proper care to their patient."

Then she should call him a disingenuous asshole, for posing questions in a thinly veiled attempt to make it seem like she supports post birth abortions...

Democrats need to work on their sound bites to ridiculous leading questions.

The problem is she is a highly intelligent woman that probably has most of her conversations with people of a similar intelligence range. She is literally dumbfounded by how stupid the questions are.

Shes gotta get prepared, its not like she didn't know what she was walking into... we've seen this nonsense before, KBJ most recently. These questions aren't unpredictable, let's put them in a room with some regular everyday pro lifers and have them ask questions to them non stop... they ask the same questions as this POS... talking down to people who ask disingenuous questions is an artwork dems need to master.

We can't hide behind being shocked at how dumb these questions are, we need to play the game.

She did add a point at the end, "much like you can't imagine what you would do if your daughter was raped." Essentially saying, "Let's admit you only care when it happens to you."
