I would myself prefer that Roe v. Wade be overturned. Notwithstanding that and the fact that I'm not a lawyer, I understand that subsequent SCOTUS pro-life decisions could so weaken and erode Roe v. Wade as to render it meaningless without ever actually overturning it. I've heard this suggested in some circles but don't have the legal training to articulate just how this could happen. Anyone want to try?

I would not try, however, the Republicans have never demonstrated an ability to slowly tear down any liberal monument. They usually leave it standing, and liberals depend on this as well as other things.

If it comes down, it will come down in court due to Evangelical and Catholic backed attorneys, not by careful, determined Republican lawmakers hands.
