The battles we have been engaging in over the years have been making a difference.

We've had setbacks, and placed our trust in some that didn't deserve it.

But with perseverance, we prevailed in the end.

Take heart.

I stopped reading when I got to this sentence, "There had been a time, in the 15 years after Roe, when Republicans were as likely as Democrats to support an absolute right to legal abortion, and sometimes even more so."

That is blatantly false. Only the far left-wing fringe has ever supported an absolute right to a legal abortion.

It also fell because the Center for Reproductive Rights decided to file a lawsuit to try to get even some of the most minor of restrictions overturned in Mississippi. No lawsuit, no case to review. They did it to themselves - if they had just let the restrictions stand, this could not have happened.

Candidate Trump: I’ll appoint Supreme Court justices to overturn Roe v. Wade abortion case: OCT 19 2016 9:31 PM EDT

Donald Trump said the overturning of the landmark Supreme Court decision giving women the right to abortion “will happen, automatically,” if he is elected president and gets to appoint justices to the high court.

“I am pro-life,” Trump said during Wednesday night’s presidential debate when asked whether he wanted that decision, Roe v. Wade, reversed by the Supreme Court.

Trump said that if the ruling were to be reversed, laws on the legality or illegality of abortion would “go back to the individual states” to decide, which was the case prior to Roe v. Wade.

But when moderator Chris Wallace pressed him on whether he wanted the ruling overturned.

Trump said, “That will happen, automatically in my opinion!” because he would get to nominate potentially several justices to the court.

In response, Hillary Clinton said, “I strongly support Roe v. Wade.”
“I will defend Roe v. Wade, I will defend a woman’s right to make her own decision,” Clinton said.

She criticized Trump for having said in the past that a woman should be punished if she got an abortion when it was made illegal.

Trump fired back, saying Clinton was in favor of partial-birth abortions being legal, which meant that a fetus could be “ripped out” of a mother’s womb a day before she was due to give birth.
