The 2010 midterm elections were a major turning point in the partisan shift. Antiabortion Democrats were voted out of office for having supported the Affordable Care Act, which allows plans in the insurance marketplaces to cover abortion, although states are allowed to ban such coverage. At the same time, a new generation of Republican lawmakers who prioritized cultural issues were swept into office.
“We sent a signal that being pro-choice was a disqualifier,” said Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of Susan B. Anthony List. “Having an ‘R’ next to your name was not enough.” National groups like Americans United for Life remained focused on a “mother child” strategy, which included talking about their belief that some forms of abortion are dangerous for the woman while pushing legislation that purported to make clinics safer. They sought to mandate clinics to widen their hallways or hire doctors with admitting privileges at local hospitals, moves that led to closure of some clinics.
Gorsuch, Trump’s first Supreme Court nominee, was one of those included on the first six-person list that Leo had brought to Trump. Leo went to the White House in 2017 with a second, handwritten list of five proposed candidates that included Brett M. Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, who would become Trump’s next two picks for the court, replacing the retiring Kennedy and the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
After Gorsuch’s confirmation in 2017, Trump was delighted by the progress. Flying on Air Force One, Trump raved to McConnell and others about what a good nominee he had been, according to Rep. Garland “Andy” Barr , who told the story on the “Ruthless” podcast this week.
