He said, pro-abortion rights people are solidly with Dems regardless and pro-life people are solidly with the Republicans regardless, so this issue will have an impact on the fringes. The biggest group in that unaccounted for voter group are the hispanics who are strongly pro life. He expects the emphasis of the abortion issue to actually help Republicans, esp in the border states.
all over the world recognize that, at some level...hopefully, one that gets smaller and smaller...legal abortion must be made available...
Within the last year Mexico's Supreme Court decriminalized abortion...just before that, India passed a law making abortion less restrictive...and before that, Ireland amended its Constitution to allow for abortions.

btw, religions differ on their theologies when it comes to abortion...Judaism says 'personhood' begins at "First Breath"...Muslims have a number of interpretations, but no Muslim-majority country bans all abortions...and I just mentioned Hindu India's change in perspective...also, from the polls and articles I've presented, even our own Catholic citizens support abortion "at some limited level", by a significant percentage.
This is reality...and again, somewhere on the order of 90% of Americans recognize the need for abortion to be legal in at least some cases....to not accept that reality only extends the rancor that is building here today...it won't stop until at least 75% of the states accept it...let's get started.
I don't "want" abortions, any more than you do...but I understand the reality of the world we live in and want to see us...however reluctantly...come together on actions that will produce the best results...i.e. much fewer abortions.

and made the correct legal decision. If someone wants an abortion, they can still get an abortion. You already have major corporations all over the country offering to cover all expenses for their employees to travel to get one if the state they live in will not allow it.

But the pro-abortion nuts in the US were apoplectic about it. You are delusional if you think they will ever agree to a common ground short of executing unwanted babies for a week after birth. California, North Korea, and China - unitedon the abortion issue. Congratulations.
It just needs to be managed. Late-term abortions unless under extenuating circumstances need to be outlawed.

of the rights of its citizens. That’s the most clever reasoning I’ve heard in a long time when talking away the rights and freedoms of US citizens.
It sounds so honest in a slithering sort of sinister way.
Did you come up with that one by yourself or is this now the new R spin from on high?

“On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued a 7–2 decision holding that the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides a fundamental "right to privacy", which protects a pregnant woman's right to an abortion.”
Try to keep up.

They are twisting every which way to make this into something that it isn't.
It's the left's own fault for over playing their hand. Just like they are doing with civil unions and George Floyd Day and CRT and "peaceful protests" and corporate wokeness and mail in voting. If it was up to the D left, they would support abortion up until 8th grade graduation. All this with the help of the weak P hat media. How does anyone expect the youth in D cities to respect life when they are taught not to respect an unborn child? When does life begin? What is a woman? Can a man give birth?

It’s mostly women who want to take away their own constitutional rights.
