Susan Sarandon is having an absolutely terrible day on Twitter… again
Bernie bro Susan Sarandon is trending on Twitter (again) after the Supreme Court ruled to overturn Roe v. Wade, upending nearly 50 years of precedent which allowed abortion until about 24 weeks of pregnancy.Related: Roberta Kaplan on the demise of Roe v.
Wade and what’s next for equalitySarandon has become something of a liberal lightning rod ever since she famously said in 2016 that she wasn’t sure she could ever bring herself to vote for Hillary Clinton and suggested she would cast her ballot for Donald Trump instead.“You know, some people feel that Donald Trump will bring the revolution immediately,” she said. “If he gets in, then things will really explode.”Well, things certainly exploded.
Unfortunately, not in the way Sarandon, who is worth an estimated $60 million, said they would. The revolution didn’t come and instead we got not one, not two, but three right-wing Supreme Court Justices with extremely conservative leanings who just blew up the right to a safe abortion in the United States.Related: Clarence Thomas wastes literally no time using Roe decision to attack gay rightsThe Court’s decision to overturn Roe in favor of Mississippi in Dobbs v.
Jackson Women’s Health is expected to result in abortion being outlawed in half the states. Of course, this isn’t really Sarandon’s fault, but a lot of people are mad at her anyway.Here’s what folx are saying on Twitter…I hope Bernie and his Bros and Susan Sarandon are enjoying the Supreme Court rulings today.
