Undoubtedly certain states will use that dog whistle to start on laws to potentially overturn those cases as he has given them an opening. Interesting though that he didn’t bring up Loving, almost like since that one effected his rights he didn’t want to reconsider it.
Thomas did them no favors with his separate opinion. He basically said the quiet part out loud that people have claimed could happen if one right was taken, that they wouldn’t stop there and would keep pushing. Many conservatives claimed those who said such things were being dramatic but now that the statement is out there the political ads are all but written. I really do think we will see a violent swing back into a competitive midterm.
You really thing something that impacts less than 1% of the population is going to outweigh inflation, supply chain issues, Ukraine, crashing 401ks and increasing debt?
You really think people are going to vote with their Facebook profile and not the issues that ACTUALLY impact their lives?
You are going to be severely disappointed
LATE EDIT: I didn't have full context of Thomas's comments so I should've waited before i said this.
