During a CNN interview with Chris Matthews on Wednesday, March 30 Trump initially confirmed his stance against abortion.
Trump was reported as saying, "There has to be some sort of punishment . . . " as reported by MSNBC news.
He later recanted his statement amiss harsh backlash from various media outlets and rival presidential candidates Kasich, Cruz and Clinton.
Trump's new stance is now, ". . . The doctor or any other person performing this illegal act upon a woman would be held legally responsible, not the woman." as quoted by The Huffington Post news.

The campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski surrendered himself to Florida police and will appear in court on Wednesday, May 4 as reported on CNBC news.
Students from Grambling State University were asked their opinion on how they felt about Trump and his stance on abortion as well as his opinions on other concerns.
“I think that it shouldn’t be his decision to [make]. It should be the woman’s decision to have an abortion or not. I also think that it is hypocritical for him to attack one issue while supporting another where their both equally wrong,” said Sharika Breule, a sophomore elementary education major from Monroe, Louisiana.
“I feel that he is arrogant. Just because you have the money he thinks he can buy himself into power. He doesn’t care about anyone else but himself,” said Clarence Clay, senior majoring in computer Science from Monroe, Louisiana.
“I feel that he wants to bring back the old days. And most of the things he said are racial slurs,” said Michael Meadows, a senior business management and economics major from Tallulah, Louisiana.
Shanika Breule, freshman, majoring in elementary education from Monroe, Louisiana, said, “I think that he shouldn’t punish [women] but I think hat in a way, he’s right. But it shouldn’t only be able on the doctors. He would have to share equal blame for both doctors and women.”
