> So we end up in a situation where a healthy majority of the country wants some level of abortion rights

some level of abortion rights != Roe and the extent of Roe

I'd imagine an easy majority supports it in cases of threats to the mother's life, but does an easy majority support letting Roe stand without any sort of weakening? I doubt it

I mean, look no further than the law that was being decided for this case. It banned abortions after 15 weeks, unless there’s a severe deformity or life of the mother.

This seems like the type of abortion “rights” that would get broad-based support across the aisle.

I imagine there will be a few states that outright ban abortion. But I think it will be a very small number, less than 10. And I think they will quickly change that position over the next 10 years.

I know that doesn’t help the people who live there now who want an abortion. But this ruling is not going to end abortion in America. That’s a guarantee.

That doesn't stand up to examination, currently Republicans are seeking to ban all abortions including of those involving rape or incest, some even go as far as forcing women to give birth even if it could be deadly to the mother. I suspect soon they will go for declaring it as 1st degree murder. They really have no shame and feel completely empowered by their cultish adoption of MAGA principals.
