All these former republicans, especially women, are so upset.

Olivia Troye, Nicolle Wallace, Tara Setmayer, and others who worked for republican presidents or worked high up in the republican ecosystem are angry and upset.

I appreciate that they turned, but what did they think would happen?

They need to take ownership of their enabling.

1. They pretend it has nothing to do with them. They are "good" people, etc.

They cannot face that they spawned the evil we see now.

2. Sad but most of those women cheering this decision at the SC will not be able to get affordable

healthcare for themselves or their children if they live in a red state.

3. Why are we against the 3 women mentioned? Actually I don't understand?

[madaboutharry]

5. I didn't say that.

I said I appreciate them and think highly of them. But they enabled this day.

They worked hard within the political party that brought us here. Troye worked for Pence, Wallace worked for Bush II, Setmayer says she is pro-life but didn’t want Roe overturned. Did they actually believe this day would never come.

6. No. No. And neck no. Why pick on the very ones who changed their minds and move d away from the GOP

People change all the time. They are allowed to. Many who never worked for the Republicans never thought the Supreme Court would do this.
Why pick on these particularly? And why call them out anyway? This is not their fault in any way.

7. I'm sorry, but you just don't get my point.

That’s ok. Have a great day.

4. Roughly 30% of Republicans had been pro-abortion for decades.

That number went down in recent years into the mid 20s due to toxic uberpartisanship overcoming principle and good sense, but there have always been many. In spite of them, pro-abortionists were always a strong, consistent majority on this issue.

OF COURSE we need pro-abortion Republicans to join with others who are pro abortion to form MAJORITIES.

Democracy is rule by MAJORITIES of the people, brought together by processes intended to inform and empower those majorities.

Never by a minority faction that manages to overset the processes of democracy to impose a will others don't agree with. As has happened in this case and would have to happen if a minority faction on the left were to prevail over the vast mainstream majorities.

Everyone who wants to fix this and what else is coming should tack up on their walls: "MAJORITIES ARE ALLIANCES OF PEOPLE WITH COMMON BELIEFS AND GOALS."
