With the left losing their minds over the possibility of a 6-3 conservative Supreme Court, i wonder how many actually know what the makeup of the 1973 Supreme Court was that ruled in favor of a woman’s right to have an abortion? Was it 5-4 liberal? Maybe 6-3 liberal?
The court at the time of the ruling was 6-3 conservative.
For a long time, the Supreme Court, as well as a large majority of our people, have favored allowing a woman to make her own choice. Any politician who is foolish enough to buck up against that reality, will lose more votes than will be gained. Trump's thinking that he may jump ahead in the election, by throwing a conservative court appointment to his followers, may actually be furthering his own demise.

But not likely !!!
Trump said before getting elected the kind of judges he would nominate !!!
Not keeping his promise would do more harm and make him look like a RINO or a democrat !!!
Trump has been outstanding and remarkable when it comes to keeping his promises !!!
Some people say he's kept more promises than he made !!! A President like no other !!!
That’s what I have said before- you could stack the court with nine conservatives and Roe v Wade is likely to remain the law of the land. The Court very rarely goes against precedent.
In that way it is similar to the Catholic Church. A pope can never declare a doctrine that contradicts a doctrine from a previous pope, because to do so would undermine faith in the Churches authority.

As a libertarian leaning Conservative, I don't really have a dog in the abortion fight.
I personally think it's abhorrent in almost all cases but that doesn't mean that I think it should be illegal on a Federal level.
But it's astounding how many on the Left are so uninformed that they think that if Roe vs Wade is overturned that abortion will automatically become illegal nationwide.
If by some chance the SC does overturn, it simply goes back to being decided on by the individual states. And that's how it should be anyways.
Roe V Wade is not going to be over turned even if there were 9 conservative justices but the Democrats sure like to spread fear that they will.
The Democrats use fear to gain votes.
