    The theory that Roberts is going to try and occupy Kennedy's position on the court by becoming the swing justice is a little bit more plausible now.https://twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/1093699312406675456 …

        I’ll wait to see if he overturns it on the merits when they consider it next year 🙃

        Eh, he could just be more committed to stare decisis than the other hacks who would have ignored clear, recent precedent.

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        Louisiana passed a law identical to one the Court found unconstitutional two years ago, in 2016. There was no way the Court *could* overrule an injunction applying that 2016 ruling, it has to stand until the Court overturns that 2016 ruling. But: Roberts can and will overturn.

        this take is squarely in the middle of the “most cynical” and “most plausible” Venn diagramhttps://twitter.com/ugarles/status/1093704053132021760?s=21 …

        Sen. Lemon Gogurt (I - Podcastia) @Ugarles
        as for the supposed good news of roberts voting to grant a stay in the lousiana abortion case, i suspect it is merely roberts being offended that the 5th Circuit tried to blow off Women's Whole Health as precedent and usurp his prerogative to blow it up

        It won’t be perfect, but it is indeed helpful to have the most institutionalist of the justices not only being the necessary 5th vote on close cases, but also having the power to assign opinion-writing whenever he’s in the majority.

        This is just too obvious an exact reversal of a 2016 decision. He will more subtly gut precedent until he rules abortion of an implanted fetus is murder and outlaws abortion.

        It makes sense because he is so concerned with his place in history and the institution of the Supreme Court. He knows if he starts overturning precedents only a couple years old he will look horrible.
