The Roberts court destroyed the constitution, rule of law, and precedence. He isn't just a political actor, but a Benedict Arnold.

There's a reason its called precedent. Its established, highly regarded law. Seen as truth setting and foundational. When you overturn not just one such precedent, but all of the ones a political party has campaigned against, you're a political actor there John.

We should start calling him Johnny Reb at this point too. Bet he'd love it.
