Unlikely, for the same reasons why Roe v. Wade stuck. I don't think they will lift state bans on abortion though until women start dying from D.I.Y. methods and doctors can't make medical decisions on whether the woman asking for one is at risk or not.

Such a barbaric act that modern society allows to happen. I get the rape and incest arguments, but if you really don't want kids, why are you screwing someone without protection?

Roe vs. Wade will be overturned. The extremists have already won this battle - in return for supporting an adulterous liar, he stacked the supreme court for them with justices who will overturn the decision from Roe vs. Wade. This is why we see states creating these new laws - they fully expect them to go to the Supreme court, and they already know that the current lineup of justices will judge them to be valid.

Any female voters who voted for Trump need to be clear that this is a direct result of their vote. If they are pro-life, they can feel good about that, but any pro-choice women who voted for Trump sold out their sisters in doing so. They should be ashamed of themselves. And they should start donating to orphanages.

It'd would be good for America if the Supreme Court overturned the ruling which was struck back in hippy free love era of the 1970's, there have been over 50 million babies aborted by American women since then that's more than all the soldiers killed in all of America's wars since the War of Independence. The American population is in decline and has to be supported by immigration, America (and the West for that matter) would be in far better shape population wise if abortions stopped and the population increased naturally. In the West there countless forms of contraceptives available that would in the vast majority of cases stop any unwanted pregnancies.

Baloney wipeout. No one is arguing against people having sex. What people are arguing against is snuffing the life out of a tiny human being. Man up and woman up if you get pregnant or get someone pregnant. Also, killing a child is NOT a right. People who support abortion are mentally defective. And let's not mention the double standards that apply to women who choose to kill their babies. The father has no final say the kid lives or dies, but if momma wants to do the right thing and carry the child, guess who's on the hook for 18 years of child support.

@zichi,

How many 5 year old girls get raped and impregnated? Pretty sure 5 year olds can't ovulate.

Zygotes and fetuses are not human beings.

It's "pro-choice" not "pro-abortion". Pretty much all of us would prefer if another abortion never happened. Some of us are reasonable in understanding that sometimes an abortion is better than not, so we promote the freedom of women to choose for themselves, rather than religious christian sharia law which is faith based rather than logic based.
