Two things are significant about this relatively short segment. First, this is an unusually serious treatment of the March for Life from a legacy media outlet that typically either ignores the marchers or dismisses their plight as hopeless. ...
Credit where credit is due: President Trump is probably largely responsible for a bump in media coverage for the March for Life this year. In his widely watched interview with ABC’s David Muir on Wednesday, Trump scorched Muir and the rest of the media for their refusal to cover the annual protest in a stunningly effective reposte.

... Equally surprising is the fact that the Women’s March on Washington is already being described as a “liberal women’s march” even by an outlet such as CNN. Instead of being a nonpartisan protest by all women against the tyranny of Trump, all the work and effort put into the Women’s March has been relegated ... to a partisan liberal protest that was most prominently associated with Planned Parenthood. ... a frank and honest acknowledgement that the marchers were merely liberals who were super unhappy with how the election turned out.
The organizers of the Women’s March have no one to blame but themselves for this. As we covered extensively here at TheBlaze, pro-life groups who were opposed to Trump were publicly disinvited from partnership with the Women’s March. ... Being opposed to Trump was declared to be publicly insufficient, and adherence to all aspects of liberal orthodoxy was made a point of participation even in protest against Trump. Meanwhile, “sex workers” were happily invited to a prominent place on the dais.
The entire sorry episode shows that liberals really have learned nothing from the devastating losses they suffered in the November elections, especially as it pertains to relating to average, everyday Americans. Many average, everyday Americans pulled the lever for Trump for the sole and exclusive reason that they considered him to be a better option than the odious, scandal-ridden Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton ...
The @#$%^-march was just a tantrum about nothing more than Hate-Trump and Prog Orthodoxy.
