I'd be very much inclined to sit it out, pray that sensibility was shared among the electorate (depending on which voters came out to vote), but also pray that the country can really move past this.
I don't feel this obsession is helping anyone. Why are still fighting something from the 1970s? The world has changed, the country is so different than it was back then.... why do we have to revisit Roe now, of all times? Why the urgency - when those that believe that abortion is murder could have done something about it in the Reagan days or in the George W. Bush days.
When Republicans had the trifecta, why didn't they pass a heartbeat bill federally, why didn't they push for a Human Life Amendment? Donald Trump would have signed it, he'd do anything they wanted in exchange for their complete obedience and loyalty, so why wasn't it done then?
Is the GOP afraid of major backlash if they follow through on this?
I just don't buy it from Republicans who say that their party isn't emotionally invested in banning abortion nationwide... that's not the reality on the ground. They certainly do want to have it banned in every state.
