I’ll argue democract are ineffective to a fault, even ineffective in a weaponizable way to punish their consitutients for straying from the center. Again, the bar is in hell. But they did not repeal abortion rights directly and never would have.
It’s not though. The Democrats are feckless. You’ll see them in the dictionary when looking up weaponized incompetence (OK that has a vaguely different meaning but you know what I mean). But if the right had never gained power, the momentum to lose these rights never would have begun.
Its shitty. Its still not the same. And also this takes a lot of blame away from swing voters who would swing right in response to Democrat fecklessness.

No, they simply refused to do anything to stop the repeal, of course.
Why are you saying this like it conflicts with anything I’ve said?
I’m not. I’m saying the difference is meaningless in results though.

Doing something =/= letting something happen
The Democrats being feckless guaranteed the right would gain power though. As many warned at the time.
