Hello and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here. The phone number is 877997.

Eric, 8779779373-745 if you would like to be a part of this year program. As I promised at the end of the last hour, I want to start with phone call here all the way up to Michigan. Tony is calling. Welcome with the program, Tony.

Hey, thank you for taking my call, Eric.

Sure.

You were just talking about abortion

in the Supreme Court, Wayne, the Mississippi case.

What do you think would be a least bad outcome

of the decision for America?

And what I mean is when you discuss this previously,

it sounded like if Rovers Wade is not overturned, then the conservative movement and pro-life

movement would consider this a failure. But if it is overturned, that would presumably kick it back

to the states where some states have trigger laws that'll make abortion legal up until the moment of

birth. And that doesn't sound like really a win for the pro-life movement because those who want

abortion can just presumably travel across state lines to get their late-term abortion. So given that

considerations of the, you know, the legitimacy of the court and the polarization in our country,

what really would be a least bad outcome for America?

You know, honestly, I kind of do think it is that one, and let me explain why.

I don't think to the extent either side is involved in the situation, that either side realizes how little will change if Roe versus Wade goes away.

When people talk about Roe versus Wade, they pour into it enormous importance.

And for some people who have staked their lives on it,

it is enormously important.

Some have staked their lives on its preservation.
