RE: Maybe there’s a slight chance Roberts or Barrett could. That’s still only four.

You don’t think Gorsuch and Kavanaugh will do the right thing?

Gorsuch and Kavanaugh already stated during their confirmation hearings that they considered Roe to be "settled law", an "important precedent" and wouldn't vote to overturn it.

I suppose there's a VERY slim chance they were simply lying and telling the RAT Senators what they wanted to hear (as FReepers argued at the time trying to defend Trump's crappy picks) but so far their records on the court demonstrate that they are NOT "pro-life justices in the Scalia mold"

I'd give about a 5-10% chance either of them would "evolve" on the court in a GOOD way and go to bat for us on this one.

Odds that Barrett votes the right way, I'd say 60-70% at this point (she seems to be sincerely pro-life at the time of her confirmation, AND had gone on record in the past publicly saying that Roe should be overturned, but has pretty much been a weak and useless justice thus far).

Roberts, I'd say 45-55% chance he does the right thing here. Similar to above, seemed to sincerely pro-life at the time of his confirmation hearings. His record since then has been increasingly backstabbing and there's no telling WHAT he'd do on this one.

With their record, no. They are scared dems will call them names or cut off their tweeter.
