For those on this thread who thought Roe v. Wade was going to be overturned: republicans really don't give a rat's ass about abortion other than pandering to the religious nuts. Priebus, currently the most powerful Republican given his new appointment (I'm not counting Trump since he isn't a republican), gave a speech last year on the pressing issues of the party. When he got to the pro-life movement, he said, we support pathways to adoption. Pro-lifers shat their pants since he didn't say ANYTHING about outlawing abortion.

Lindsey Graham, not exactly a bastion of women's issues or abortion, also said this year to his fellow party members: you gotta cool it with abortion or we will lose more women and especially young women. Just chill and let the states deal with it. Which is exactly what Trump said if you were paying attention. He said he'd appoint pro-life judges who would "automatically overturn R v W" and anyone who knows anything about anything knows that's not how it works - and then he continued "and return abortion laws to the states." And there you have it. He doesn't really want to outlaw abortion in the US. He wants it to be a state issue. The republican party cares about economic policy that will benefit them and their corporate donors. Abortion is low on the list, except as a way to pander to the religious right.

So I'm not saying things are great for the abortion rights movement right now. Women in red states are in danger of losing access in the coming years. But the party doesn't care enough about it to get enough women riled up to outlaw it completely. As for the red states, technology and the onslaught of virtual medicine will certainly improve access to medical abortion in the coming years and there is really not much anyone can do about that, at least for women in the first trimester.

Finally, Zika is going to be a game changer for later term abortions. In Florida and the southern red states, there will be more and more cases in the coming years as the CDC has guaranteed. Rubio and the rest of them have no idea what caring for these babies will due to their budget, and they are not going to like that. The universe works in mysterious ways.

Don't worry. In the next two years Trump, along with a Republican Senate, will appoint two maybe three Supreme Court judges that will overturn Roe v. wade. Problem solved.

Yes, and then we'll get more brown babies, yes? Guess who they'll vote for.

Majority is fleeting, don't you forget that.

LOL, haven't we been hearing that for years? That The Demographics are Changing and Thus the Republicans will Become Irrelevant Once and for All. Well, here we are again. In fact, Trump received a larger minority % than did Romney, McCain, or GWB.

So no...I'm not concerned at all.

Glad to see you acknowledge that pro abortion policies disproportionately impacts minorities. You've been killing brown people for many years.

Are you saying that the women of color who decide to have abortion can't possibly be able to make that decision for themselves? How patronizing are you?

Why all the debate; it's a moot point. The Trump Supreme Court will overturn Roe v. Wade and then the democratically elected Republican House, Senate, and President Trump will place a Federal ban on all abortion. And since you vott happening. ed him into office you can't do a fucking thing about it.

Fantasy. Overturning Roe v. Wade means handing the right to make abortion laws back to the states in accordance with the 10th amendment. Making abortion illegal at the Federal level then would require a Constitutional amendment. Two thirds of both houses would be required. Not happening. Alternatively, the legislatures of two thirds of the states have to call a convention to propose. Also not happening.

Most mothers do not really want to terminate the lives of their children. But they do want support to have and maintain a secure nuclear family unit for their children.

And then all the states that ban abortions will become just like Romania in the Soviet Era, yay for them! More abandoned babies! More abused children! More financial strain on the state when the pro-birth activists don't step up to adopt all severely disabled children left on the doorstep.

Meanwhile all the wealthy women who don't want to continue their pregnancies for one reason or another, plenty of anti-choice Republicans and Christians among them, will all be heading up to New York, California, or Canada for their abortions.

Wow, PP, you sound very racist and anti-disabilist. Instead of advocating for abortions, perhaps you should advocate for birth control programs, pre natal screening, and adoptions.

The problem with your reasoning (if you can call it that) is that many of the anti-abortion people also don't support birth control programs.
