American Politics Thread V: We're Just Biden Our Time ...

[Austria-Bohemia-Hungary]

A law gets passed that outlaws same sex marriage and adoption in total violation of that Supreme Court decision?

This law then goes to the SCOTUS and the 7 to 2 GOP majority says the 14th doesn't apply to the gays in this case. That law now stands and a new law (precedence) is made.

America spent most of the 1900's pretending that the 14th didn't apply to a lot of people. America can do it again at the stroke of a pen.

How? A law gets passed that outlaws same sex marriage and adoption in total violation of that Supreme Court decision? If it was that easy why didn’t Republicans pass such a law in 2017?

States are passing laws right now that make abortion basically illegal should the Supreme Court rule that such laws are constitutional.

And if they do it will backfire massively on Republicans.

The water is being tested with abortion... as we speak.

And who votes for the GOP? Not you at least.

And you’d have a Supreme Court completely out of touch with public opinion.

Well you got 7 GOP justices vs 2... guess what abortion is gonna be illegal.

How? The people who are pro-choice already tend to vote for Democrats.

And you think the majority of woman will just say oh well. It would massively backfire and they’d lose woman voters even more.

No they will not. Those who are strongly pro-choice already do not vote for Republicans for the most part.

SL you should take this to heart: None, nada, not even a single one of GOP politicians give a bloody fuck about what you think they should do. They don't even give very many fucks about what half the American population wants.

Republicans will pay for it at the polls then as well as if your scenario of passing a law to outlaw lgbt rights came to pass. Even a majority of Republicans support lgbt rights.

You hope this will happen. You might even pray for this to happen. But I have my doubts. As do pretty much a sizeable portion of the users on this thread.

No they won't, the people who are already pro-choice don't even vote for them, they're not gonna lose many voters, and frankly don't care.

This thread isn’t the majority. That’s like saying online comments predict elections. They don’t.

You're welcome to your fantasies, but when SCOTUS says gay marriage is now unconstitutional do not come for me.

You honestly think majority of woman would be ok with being forced to carry all children to term and thousands of lgbt couples would be content with their marriages being annulled and their children to longer being legally theirs?

I press X for doubt.

The majority of women/gays/whatever are not politically active enough and will bend to whatever comes out of DC. Like how a majority of women/gays/whatever bends to whatever the Ecuadorean govt wants.

Why didn’t Republicans just outlaw abortion at the federal level in 2017 and do the with Lgbt rights? Seems like it would have been the simple thing to do since they had a majority.

No way Roberts or Gorsch would go for the second considering Gorsch wrote the opinion that ended lgbt discrimination in the workplace.

Because they were a disorganised mess due to Trump.

Correction: They aren't actively opposed to them. But if the Trump Party decides being gay is bad and outlaws gay marriage, they will totally go along with it.
