Overruling Roe wasn’t “extreme,” it was literally the lowest hanging fruit on the tree. At the time it was decided, a prominent law professor noted that it’s “not constitutional law and gives almost no sense of an obligation to try to be.” It was the left’s version of Lochner—a decision so irrational that by the end liberals could only defend it on the ground it was precedent.

On top of everything else, Roe was an aberration internationally. When Macron criticized the U.S. Supreme Court for overturning Roe, he got the French people to approve an amendment to add an abortion right to the French constitution. Of course, French courts wouldn’t just gin such a right into existence from thin air, because they’re not lawless. I don’t know if anyone picked up on the irony of that.

The real chumps are Republicans. They should appoint justices that will create the conservative version of the Warren Court. Adopt Democrats’ preferred “emanations from penumbras” standard for interpreting the constitution. I bet you can find some cool stuff in “emanations from penumbras” of the second amendment, the contract clause, etc.

Like the right to bear arms?

There is no literal reading of the second amendment that grants gun rights to individuals outside of well regulated militias.

Sure if you ignore literally every fucking justices testimony before congress stating "Roe v Wade is SETTLED LAW, it shouldn't be touched"

They lied to fucking congress
