Aside from the obvious fact that an abortion ban would allow the Democrats to do nothing and say “vote blue to get abortion rights back” forever as well as the fact that most Democratic voters are upper-middle class white collar workers who wouldn’t really be affected by the ban. My theory is that the elites are realizing that America is demographically screwed. For years, Americans bragged about how China is never going to be a superpower because of its low fertility rate. But with a collapse in immigration rates under Trump and COVID as well as Zoomers/Millennials not having kids because they cannot afford it, it’s looking like America is entering its own demographic crisis. Even Muskrat was talking about this. When you have no one to buy your junk, then the American economy grinds to a halt. My theory is that failsons like Musk will start a massive push to end abortion in order to increase the birth rate so the capitalist system in the west survives just a little longer. and that Democrats will play right along.
They have been pushing for a pro-life caucus within the Dems for at least a few years now. They think it’s an issue that hurts them with religious voters.
