I suspect the Court is politically savvy enough to avoid making mifepristone illegal right before the election. They'll make a soft open-ended decision that leaves it unrestricted and come back to it in a few years, then make it illegal.
Have you been living under a rock for the last couple of decades? The newest chucklefucks appointed to SCOTUS don't give two shits about appearances and will do whatever they want at any time.
They care a lot about appearances, what they don't care about is actual popular opinion or democracy.
If they cared about appearances they'd adopt a code of ethics.
They did though, right?
One that has no mechanisms of enforcement, which makes it exclusively about appearances.
I think you have a good point though: we shouldn't be surprised when they make another egregious ruling.
They actually did!
Believe me now?
That's a lot of trust.
youre more optimistic than me. to me, they pull an unpopular move in a time when trump isn't likely to win, wait four years, until a non-Trump conservative gets the nomination - win.
or they do it and trump wins anyway- win.
Optimistic? I think a favorable ruling on this issue will be weaponized to deflate anti-Trump voters. "See? You were worried about nothing, the Supreme Court is still a legitimate institution."
That question isn't before the court and making mifepristone illegal isn't even a potential outcome of this case.
God whatever, they won't restrict it nationwide either. I'm almost certain they won't do anything controversial that close to the election.
Oh it's quite possible that they'll rule the FDA didn't follow their process and return some restrictions. This court does care about optics but not to the point that they'll change rulings over it. If that were true then Roe wouldn't have been overturned.
Overturning Roe wasn't close to an upcoming election! They underestimated how long voter's memories would be, they'll be very careful this time. Especially because this is Trump's last stand.
