I'm just curious if any of our Left leaning posters have actually agreed to the No Abortions after the first Tri-Mester (Hollerdo doesn't count, he's the only Left leaning poster I can recall that's in favor of the compromise). 

I think that a fair and reasonable compromise needs to fall between the first trimester - where 93% of all abortions already happen - and the earliest point of fetal viability outside the womb, which is generally considered to be around 24 months. 
In previous posts, I've stated that I feel 20 weeks seems to best grant the mother a reasonable length of autonomy, while also securing a point at which the right of the fetus to have the opportunity of life supersedes the mother's autonomy. 

Discussions about abortion "compromise" don't get very far because right now the actual effective political question is whether abortion should be allowed at all. 

Project 2025 and their corporate/congressional backers aren't soliciting compromise suggestions.  Department of Life and that's that. 

Though I'm with Sunset when it comes to 2-year olds.  I'll support any ban on abortions AFTER nine months.
