    Social conservatives already believe that the GOP betrayed them with Souter and Kennedy. Will they also conclude that with Kavanaugh & Roberts?https://twitter.com/DanielLarison/status/1072167444674998276 …

        Nah, not in the long-term. Roberts is happy to chip away at abortion rights in more subtle ways but doesn't want his legacy tarnished with a big fight. Kavanaugh, knowing that without Roberts the case wouldn't get accepted anyway, used it as cover to appear impartial.

        Eeeh, it seems likely that this is more about timing than anything else- building up cred before making partisan rulings. Not hearing this case is very different from deciding in PP’s favor.

        I suspect social conservatives will never get the level of purity they're looking for.

        Roberts already "betrayed" social conservatives by upholding the individual mandate.

        Better than being a Gorsuch mini-me. If only marginally...

        Probably but it's not true. Just like how people think Kennedy was a moderate.

        🤔Given how much they don't want to hear that at least Kennedy and perhaps Souter did their best to give them what they needed, not what they wanted, Yes. In fact, Hell Yes, and Yaaaaassss.😉

        This is wild. From what I've seen, so-cons believed Souter & Kennedy had betrayal them more than they believe the *GOP* had. It's my understanding this is, in large part, what led to the current GOP judicial infrastructure designed to deliver movement conservative judges.

        If, as this suggests, that infrastructure is a sham & meant only to deliver reliably conservative judges on economic issue... then the whole thing's just a big con - out in the open & all the way down. Wow. Dems will shy away from using this, but they shouldn't. Expose the lies.
