(71,467 posts)refused to vote for Hillary Clinton. Three Trump judges will vote to end Roe...one was already waiting when those on our side didn't vote for Hillary. Also, the same sort of thing happened in 2000 and two justices appointed by Bush2 will vote to end Roe. And of course, one judge Thomas is from Bush1. He clearly received votes from our side given the magnitude of his win. After all, how you look in an Army helmet and what you would do if your wife was raped were of national significance.
Truly, we brought this on ourselves by our refusal to look at the big picture in terms of elections. You fight like hell in the primaries but once that is over, you always vote for the winner, and let's try not to mortally wound one another in primaries too. And let's face the truth, does anyone really believe if there had been no primary in 16 that Trump would have won the election? It was a big mistake...hopefully not a fatal mistake.
But now we need to put this aside and mend our ways in order to save our party and our Republic. Let us begin with the midterms. I fear this will be a long battle but we must fight this war against those that would destroy our constitution and our Republic.
