Donald Trump is going to have to break a promise to someone. He's promised to dole out anti-Covid drugs to everyone who wants it. For free! Now it comes out that the drug he wants to hand out was developed using human cells derived from fetuses aborted decades ago. He's already promised the anti-abortion crowd never to use such cells.
