Roe concocted a right from ether. And as Trump ham-fistedly noted, it stripped voters and states of the ability to make their own laws or even really debate the science or morality of the issue. But the Trump-appointed justices didn’t “ban” abortion. They handed back the issue, mentioned nowhere in the Constitution or in any tradition — save, perhaps, Baalism — as a fundamental human right, to voters.

If Democrats truly believed that third-trimester abortions for convenience are a fundamental “freedom,” as Harris puts it, they wouldn’t smother their rhetoric with euphemisms and lies. Though it’s quite rich hearing Democrats, champions of state intrusions into virtually every orifice of American life, lamenting attacks on individual liberty.
