Big Journalism is shouting the "news" that Trump says abortion is solely a state matter, and gleefully quoting supposedly angry Republicans who claim he betrayed them..

Please. There is no "rift" between Trump and the right-wing religious extremists. Their ire is performance. They know he'd sign any national anti-abortion law that Congress passes.

They're some of his central foot soldiers in the war on democracy and civil liberties.

Journalists, please please just stop buying this stuff.
