Pack the Supreme Court with young Republican judges
This. Directly, POTUS could order federal law enforcement or troops to guard medical clinics that practice abortions, like school desegregation not very long ago, but it would eventually wind up in front of SCOTUS. Allowing other private citizens to stand to benefit directly adds additional degrees of legal and practical complication.
Repubs are lighting fires for the Biden administration to be forced to extinguish. They don’t care if part of the ship burns down, they just want to undermine the captain and be back at the helm.

This is the triumph of the Mitch McConnell strategy; Pack the Supreme Court with young Republican judges by whatever means possible. Deny Obama the opportunity to appoint Merrick Garland, but rush through the appointment of Amy Coney Barrett. The Republicans can sit out any Democratic Presidencies knowing the Supreme Court is biddable.
