Demographics are not on Republican's side. They have to use courts to ram through nonsense the electorate doesn't want because the republican base is dying off..
Not the same. The Republicans are fine with it being governed by the states...so why would they push to have it in the constitution?
What's going on here is you're assuming every republican thinks abortion should be illegal. Which isn't the case.
The "republican base" is not dying off. It's just that democrats are reproducing at a much faster rate because they don't know how to use birth control. If anything, the ruling on Roe v Wade today increases the number of democrats you'll have over time!
What a time to be alive.
