Only someone who does not view abortion as the taking of innocent human life can buy that reasoning.
That's not true. It is sound reasoning regardless of your view on when life begins.
That is what makes it the strongest case, and the only one that can succeed.
There have been many small victories along the periphery, yes.
But nothing short of a legal argument that Roe v. Wade got the law wrong can overturn it.
And no one who takes a public position on the morality of abortion can get confirmed to the Supreme Court.
A President who promises "pro-life" justices will be met with a filibuster.
If you want to win some major battles, it will require more strategic thinking.

One of the things that R.v.W. mentioned in its decision was that there was not legislative definition of when life begins. Hunter has been trying to correct that since the 1980s when he cosponsored legislation with Bob Dornan. It’s the rinos and dems that have blocked it.

Overturning R.V.W would only let it revert to states. CA, NY, MA, and many others would become the hubs of abortion for those who wanted one but lived in OK, AL, ID, etc.

Abortion must be defeated on all fronts. It is murder.
