Republicans said for 50 years that Roe was settled law and would never be overturned. Right wing Justices testified in their confirmation hearing that it was settled law
Republicans attacked it around the edges that whole time and then finally killed it.
They can never be trusted.
They clearly want it gone in any way they can make that happen
Hypothetically speaking, if 40 states voted to allow abortion, would conservatives be ok with that? “Hey we left it up to the states, and the people in those states decided that they want to murder babies, and that’s perfectly fine with us. Go ahead and murder those babies. Murder as many of them as you like.”
I don’t believe that for a second. You’re not ok with leaving it up to the states. You guys will pass a national abortion ban the first chance you get, and we all know it.
At that time few politicians were publicly for aborting babies; they would never have been re-elected.
That is not where the country was.
People took exception to the fact that 9 unelected people could bypass the whole "democracy" thingy
and find rights where no right previously existed and that no law could be passed "democratically".
I naturally would not, as have never been on twitter or X or whatever they are calling it now, so I don't see that stuff unless somebody posts it here. It is not surprising, one of the two sides pandering and propagandizing the issue.
Absolutely. According to all the polls I've seen a large majority of people think at least some regulation of abortion is proper for the states to do. But most do not want it banned for all reasons. Trump is on the record that the states are the proper place for such regulation to take place and he thinks those states with the most draconian abortion restrictions go too far as do those with no restrictions at all. But it is a matter for the people in the states to decide.
Bankruptcy filings rose 16 percent during the 12-month period ending March 31, 2024. That is a similar rate of acceleration as in the Dec. 31, 2023, quarterly report, but new bankruptcy cases remain significantly lower than before the start of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Half the country is worse off then before Xiden was in office....a record number since the Great Recession.
Half in U.S. Say They Are Worse Off, Highest Since 2009
Trump already told America that abortion was a states rights issue. Biden/Harris are so focused on federal power that they aren't even aware of what states rights means.
