Hey, #NeverTrump and #RepublicansforHillary, did you like that decision? Would you like more like that, FOREVER? If so, DON’T vote for Trump, and DO vote for Hillary, whatever you do.

OTOH, if this decision disturbs you on ANY level (the abortion issue itself, states’ rights, women’s health, 2 or more of the above, or ANYthing else), then perhaps you #NeverTrump and #RepublicansforHillary guys and gals should consider voting for Trump for one very simple reason: HE ISN’T HILLARY CLINTON.

The choice here is a simple one: vote for Trump and at least have a chance that he’s telling the truth, that he WILL appoint Originalist Justices (and lower court judges, too). As a bonus, you know that you’ll get:

Lower taxes
Less regulations
Fracking will be encouraged
Our immigration will be somewhat controlled
Our budget will be AT LEAST less imbalanced
Our military will be stronger
He won’t be going after guns
He’s not owned by foreign interests, let alone a BUNCH of them

With Hillary - whether you vote for her or simply sit at home and pout about Trump and LET her get in - we will face the very real possibility of this nation as we know it NEVER coming back, and possibly its end. You WILL get a solid majority of 6, perhaps 7 Supreme Court Justices - which means that the Constitution will have the value of used toilet paper.

YOUR CHOICE, FOLKS: Trump and at least some hope for a restoration of sanity, or Hillary and no hope whatsoever. There is NO 3rd choice, and there is no “but in 2020 we’ll wrest the White House from Hillary” - it didn’t work with Billy Jeff (BJ) Clinton, it didn’t work with Obama, and it WON’T work with Hillary.

Time to step up, IF you love your country more than your pride or a rather ineffective bunch of talking points sold to us by Beltway insiders that didn’t mean it.

Ignore the ruling, just like Barry ignores the rulings he doesn’t like.

It is imperative that we elect Donald Trump this November. He has put together an impressive list of judges from which he will nominate Supreme Court replacements.

Each and every one of them is PRO LIFE!

If we care at all about the unborn, if we care about our country, WE MUST VOTE FOR TRUMP.
And do all we can to get others to vote for him.

I’m not a secessionist, but that’s awesome.

That’s what I meant.

Didn’t know Kennedy had gone more left since Scalia died, though.

And didn’t think of the Texas secession implications.

That means it would have lost even if we had Scalia?

So the 10th Amendment no longer exists?

Pro-lifers have told me that it is reasonable to believe that illegal abortions are safer than legal ones, because the people breaking the law don’t want to be caught.

Unfortunately, statistics on deaths and other calamities from legal abortion are impossible to obtain. How convenient.

Now it is worse.

NYC is allowed to “reinterpret” the 2A and effectively Ban Guns, yet the state of TX is not allowed to have circumscribe behavior around abortions performed in their state?

Welcome to the Twilight Zone.

More dead children of Americans = more third world immigrants. The government establishment is very happy and celebrating with caviar canapés, finger cakes and champagne.

You are quite right - Griswold v. Connecticut is the root of this.

This reality is very uncomfortable for many Freepers.

It goes back to the Founders, in my opinion. I believe they made a serious mistake establishing a Supreme Court. After that, they added to their mistake by granting life tenure.

Way too many people who call themselves conservatives are pro abortion. Just like way too many who call themselves Christians are pro abortion.

The mainline “Right” has learned from the Left how useful it is to abuse language to achieve their political goals.
