A primary strategy the right uses is to feign responsibility and pretending to be reasonable. It usually doesnt pass scrutiny but it allows them to seem reasonable, and responsible.
It’s like fiscal republicans talking about reducing inefficient government spending, and reducing the deficit to balance the books. On the surface this sounds responsible like a household balancing their own budget. In practice some deficit is useful, and they forget all about it when they are funding military spending and giving tax cuts to the wealthy.
It’s the same as this. They arent going to outright ban abortion(yet) its a free country! But they will give a “reasonable” time frame based on an old man’s limited knowledge of female anatomy. They can then pretend that if a woman needs or wants an abortion after the deadline it’s the woman’s fault for first not using protection, and then not knowing her own body.
Never mind that these same people also limit sex ed and healthcare that would provide birth control.
