I don’t know with the right speaker you could have true conservatives marching outside the black-hut every time he signs another EO which pretty much makes him a dictator.
Also, we could have investigated why John Roberts changed his mind and decided that obamacare was a tax and was indeed legal after already writing the against. Scalia tried and got no where. Why didn’t he have any help?
Can’t explain Roberts. But a speaker really can’t make much difference after a decision comes down. Also Roberts wasn’t the only supreme to keep Ocare the law. So singling him out other than the hope was he was to be a reliable conservative vote really serves no purpose. Please there were times that Scalia cast a few votes that raised conservative eyebrows. For a few years Newt was considered the right speaker, yet he lost control.
