supreme court judges are not supposed to arbitrarily overturn precedent. they're supposed to actually have a good reason - a miscarriage of justice.

so, it's going to be harder to reverse roe v. wade than you think.

they're either going to have to come up with an argument as to why the ruling was wrong, which is going to be hard given that it clearly wasn't, or they're going to have to come up with something that somehow lets the state overturn a right to choose - some kind of trump card over personal autonomy. it's hard to imagine what that is.

in theory, it would be easier to legislate an end to it, and then let the court uphold the new legislation. but, if such a thing were plausible, it would be done by now.

how much money would the republicans lose in fundraising if they could actually pull this off? how many votes would drift elsewhere? it's kind of at the centre of their party.

i don't want to say you shouldn't remain vigilant, because you should. i just hardly think you should get apocalyptic about it...
