(Old Slashdot style repping)

Really perceptive! He was nominated by Obama. John Roberts also upheld the health insurance mandated penalty as a "tax". He hewed to the Democrat playbook there.

And the normies can't see that because the normies who are ideological about abortion in both ways (pro and anti) are up their own asses about the issue and desperately claw onto anyone who appeases them. John Roberts was seen as a hero for the overturning of RvW and to conservative right to lifers he gained trust that he probably didn't deserve.

Roberts could have done this specifically to re-energize the left. We could be seeing him as a Supreme Court "Manchurian judge".

All of this fits together like a fucking set of Lego blocks.
