English Baby Denied Care

President Trump and the Pope have weighed in on a medical case in England where the doctors want to pull the plug on a baby that is going to die from an incurable condition.  I get the Pope's position, I do not get our President's position.  He is prepared to sign a bill (assuming that the dysfunctional Republicans can get something to him) that would have already killed this child.  That's right the party of pro-life is only concerned about life until just before birth.  They would make maternity care optional (cost a lot of money).  They would instill lifetime benefit caps (this child is already passed that).  They would reduce assistance.  Wasn't one of the Republican's complaints about Obama that he put the needs of people in foreign countries ahead of US citizens?  Apparently the current President didn't get the  memo.
