I've been seeing a lot of debate on the new GOP platform elsewhere, but there has been very little discussion of it here. Allegedly, the new platform was created almost entirely by the Trump-loyal parts of the RNC (Lara Trump, etc), with some claiming that it's essentially a Trump campaign ad more than a traditional party platform.

I have seen many complaints from cultural conservatives about two major differences from previous GOP platforms: the lack of a call for a nationwide abortion ban and the lack of an affirmation that marriage is between and man and a woman. Log Cabin Republicans, on the other hand, have praised the latter change. However, there has been much less discussion of the other parts of the platform, many of which I think are quite promising.
What do you think of the new platform?
The body parts and cells of aborted fetuses and unused frozen IVF cells shall never be sold or traded for financial gain.
I’m good with that.
