Well as a "white" evangelical nondenominational pastor said in a sermon yesterday, "When he turn to the powers of this world for a spiritual victory, we never win. We always lose."

According to this logic, pro lifers should have actively campaigned against blue state senator Susan Collins because she's pro choice. Never mind that she was the deciding vote to confirm Kavanaugh, who was the deciding judge to overturn Roe.
Anyway, I consider overturning Roe a case in point. Aside from being played by Republicans for decades and then double-played by Trump, what did it really get you?
It's not that complicated. It's better to have pro choice senators who support pro life judges than pro choice senators who opposed pro life judges. Obviously I'd prefer pro life senators, but that's not possible in states like Maine.
Trump promised he'd appoint judges who'd overturn Roe. Trump delivered. The result is hundreds of thousands of babies saved. I'm thrilled with that result, and I'm looking for ways to save millions more lives.
The result is an increase in the number of abortions by some reports made by pro-life sources. I think Rod may have referenced one of them a while back. The result is also a wave of citizen referenda to enshrine abortion rights in state constitutions. You would have been better off with a modest restraint on the police powers of the state, and asserting your First Amendment rights. Trump is an opportunist who will dump you anytime he sees it as advantageous to do so.
The abortion rate was already rising before Roe was overturned. This was due to decisions by the FDA to loosen restrictions around the abortion pill under the Obama and Biden administrations.
The increase in abortions since Dobbs is due to blue state residents having more abortions on in-state residents. Something similar is happening in the UK where they had record abortion rates in 2022.
Maybe not if you were writing them -- but actually many do. Further, Trump is on video telling a reporter there has to be a punishment, and specifying yes, for the woman. At any rate, even if you limited it to doctors and nurses, its still the same losing proposition. Leaving doctors uncertain as to where the boundaries are due to vague language, so that they decline to do a medically necessary procedure on any woman, is a real travesty. And the reliance on criminal statutes is the problem, no matter who you deign to target.

No matter how you slice and dice the statistics, reliance on criminal penalties to reduce abortions turns out to be a real loser.
None of the pro life laws criminalize the woman getting the abortion.
