11 Ways Democrats Helped Overturn Roe v. Wade

11 Ways Democrats Helped Overturn Roe v. Wade
No one did more to ensure that the moral and legal atrocity called Roe v. Wade was overturned than Democrats. Let’s count the ways, shall we…
1. Harry Reid
How do we even begin to thank the late Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) for ending the filibuster?
Harry ended the filibuster in 2013 so Barry Obama could fill the courts with fascist radicals. This act ensured then-President Trump could get his trifecta of perfect Supreme Court justices over the finish line. If Reid had not killed the filibuster, at least two of those three (Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett) would have been non-starters, and Roe v. Wade would still be the law of the land.
Thank you, Harry!
2. Lena Dunham
From where I sit, rape-hoaxer Lena Dunham led the pro-abortion crowd into a corner they could not escape from. Back in 2016, when Dunham said, “Now I can say that I still haven’t had an abortion, but I wish I had,” she shifted the left’s public attitude.
For decades, the pro-abortion crowd treated abortion as a solemn and unfortunate necessity. Dunham basically said the quiet part out loud, and mainstream Democrats followed her lead. As a result, what had been portrayed as “safe, rare, and legal” was now treated as something like getting a tattoo—butchering an innocent baby was now a sign of empowerment, strength, or, as Dunham put it, “bravery” and “self-knowledge.”
Democrats stridently removing the stigma of abortion shocked the conscience of millions and radicalized (in a positive way) the pro-life crowd.
3. Ralph Northam
If you want an example of saying the quiet part out loud, this (from 2019) is really something…
"When we talk about third-trimester abortions, these are done with the consent of, obviously, the mother, with the consent of the physician—more than one physician, by the way—and it’s done in cases where there may be severe deformities. There may be a fetus that’s non-viable. If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother."
A living baby is fully born, and Democrats don’t want to do everything to save its life. And this isn’t some freakazoid leftist admitting that. This was the Democrat then-governor of Virginia.

I think the Northam comment really brought things to fruition. He openly advocated for murder if a fully-formed baby that was already birthed for heaven’s sakes.
This is cold-blooded killer stuff.

All 11 ways stem from their hubris. They kept opening the door believing no one would ever dare walk through it.
They were wrong.

The biggest one they left off is Ruth Bader Ginsgberg. Hailed as the patron saint of "Women's rights", she, while in her upper 70's/early 80's had every opportunity to retire and allow President Obama in his 8 years in office to nominate a much more leftist justice. She didn't. She tried to fight nature and hang on through Trump's term. Without that, the 5-4 ruling in Dobbs likely goes the other way because Roberts didn't vote to overturn Roe v. Wade.

I would have to add Thurgood Marshall. Appointed by Johnson, he steps down in 1991 and is replaced by Clarence Thomas. The irony is that had he held on like RBG did then Clinton would have named his replacement instead of Bush. Marshall died 1/24/1993.

most of the pro-life/pro-choice debate had been little skirmishes up to that point without major war. i know his comments are "mildly" out of context, but combine that with the Kathy Tran comments, it became an all out war.
i think that's when it went from "safe, legal, and rare" to WTF are you talking about killing a baby outside the womb?

don't forget that Virginia assemblywoman... what's her name... who was defending a bill she wrote on the assembly floor who admitted her bill basically gave the woman 1 last chance to "abort" it right after the baby was born... completely out of the woman's body

Marshall probably gets a pass. He was in no condition to continue serving on the Court and Bush had an obscenely high approval rating - over 80% - when he decided to retire so everyone assumed the 11 year freight train of Republican control of the White House would continue.
