Maybe this is a war on women, but, there's lots and lots of women who are fighting with or are complicit with that battle.

I think some felt that abortion was safe. Roe had been in place for so long, it seemed unthinkable to many that it could be overturned. It'll be very interesting to see what the female vote will look like this year and in 2024.
