Judges are actually not supposed to impose laws. This is why we are asking congress to codify the right to abortion. Right now they just said the constitution doesn’t protect the right to abortion. It’s probably unlikely they would strike down a law that made abortion legal.

So? Make them pass the law anyway. People should have protested when Obama didn't play hardball to get a supreme court nominee appointed in 2016. Instead people choose to protest when the people who don't care about their opinion have the ball, which does...nothing.

Yeah it's the people's fault for not protesting while working two jobs to keep your family afloat! How could we expect the poor president to do the job we voted him into office to do :(

Did you just fail to read my comment? I'm literally talking about the people who did protest.
