Is it a realistic possibility... [View all]

…that if the GOP gain ground in Congress this year, and Roe is overturned, do you see a realistic possibility the country could see a split in the years to come? I don’t see states like California or New York going along with a ban on abortion.

Or is this post hair on fire and unrealistic and we will get through this as a whole country in the long run?
