    Technically Roe was a shakey foundation. It really reached to make abortion covered by the bill of rights. Best thing was to rip the bandaid off and get people pissed. Hopefully it leads to federal law adoption or better yet a new Amendment.

    5 years, tops before US Republicans claim this was their goal the whole time to take “credit” for what has happened.

      Nah, that would be lose-lose for them.

      Liberal-leaning voters would see straight through their shit and keep voting democrat, while religious conservatives would drop republicans and go independent after rioting over their vote going to a party that supports “child murder.”

        You should look at the recent supreme court confirmations and the various controversies surrounding them if you are unaware of how Republicans factor into this.
