Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, took to Twitter to criticize Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump for asking the mother of a crying baby to leave a campaign rally Tuesday.
And they were promptly excoriated on social media:
Add babies to the list of people @realDonaldTrump would kick out of his campaign rallies. https://t.co/UaqVpv35bd

Planned Parenthood objects to anti-baby hostility. Beyond parody: https://t.co/SzXbvkjA4H

WOW. That is an almost shocking lack of self-awareness. https://t.co/lMhc16lv8b

I'm not against Planned Parenthood but this tweet wins the award for Most Staggering Lack of Self Awareness. https://t.co/V1jHhz416M

From an organization that prefers its babies to scream silently. https://t.co/wWtPuv47g5

At least they leave his rallies alive. They never leave your clinics alive, do they? https://t.co/FlFpBBRwWt

At his rally in Ashburn, Virginia, Tuesday, Trump encouraged the mother of a crying baby not to “worry" about taking her crying child outside before telling her, “Actually, I was only kidding, you can get the baby out of here,” a moment later.
Planned Parenthood Action Fund has endorsed Trump's rival, Democratic presidential nominee Hillary
Clinton, and is campaigning on her behalf.
Watch the moment from Trump's rally below:
As baby cries during rally, Trump first says "I love babies," then "Kidding, you can get the baby out of here." https://t.co/FhVeiFAelU
