Roberts is a good example of why we best not hope for SCOTUS to take up any Second Amendment cases

We will need another appointment to get to a conservative court, maybe two.

The only reason to worry about your reputation is if you fail in integrity.

I read a report on Politico that John Roberts has been interfering in the Mueller investigation..?

That a foreign country prevailed on him to do something for them.

I’d have a hard time calling Roberts a ‘conservative’ after what he did to us with the shit sandwich called Obama care.

“But Lawrence Solum, a professor of constitutional law at Georgetown University’s law school, said Roberts seems to have two reasons to limit the court’s involvement in hot-button cases: his preference for taking small steps in the law and his concern for the court’s reputation.”

What a pant load...Obolacare, fag marriage, etc

Roberts is a traitor.

I find it interesting that the article never mentioned the imminent retirement/death of RBG...

Below the Supreme Court there are currently 144 federal judiciary vacancies with 70 nominees pending for those vacancies. The Senate needs to SPEED UP their approval of the pending nominees. And President Trump needs to speed up vetting/selection of nominees for the 74 vacancies that don’t yet have pending nominees.

And there are 18 KNOWN near-term future vacancies with only 3 nominees pending in the Senate so far. Processing for replacement of these pending vacancies also needs to be SPEEDED UP.

The Supreme Court is the greatest selling point for reelecting President Trump. Imagine a couple of Hillary Clinton-appointed Justices on the Court in place of Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh.

It’s going to be very interesting when RBG assumes room temperature.

"his concern for the court's reputation" is another way of saying that he (and his wife) are fearful of the liberal media and he/they want to stay popular amongst their many liberal neighbors and associates. In other words, he puts his own reputation and comfort above his duty to the country and to the Constitution.

I doubt it. I stopped putting any faith in SCOTUS in the “assault rifle ban” era. I pretty much want nothing important decided by those capriciously condescending tyrants.

The court has no reputation to consider any more.

We could call it "The Supreme Corpse", after its most deceased member.

Any chance we could get Ginsburg and Breyer to take up sky diving or even roller-blading?

When (not if, but when) Trump gets to nominate the next judge for the Supreme Court, he better do as the democrats do, and that is to ask the nominee how he/she would rule on cases related to abortions and guns and borders/illegals and taxes and regulations and state sanctuaries and, well... would he vote like a good conservative with the constitution and our bill of rights being the foundation for every decision of the court.

Democrats get away with asking those questions, so, why not Trump and republicans?

Roberts already took a big dump on the court’s rep with Obamacare. Then he did again a few weeks back. The guy is hopelessly lost in space. He should resign. He’s not SCOTUS material.

>> Abortion restrictions, workplace discrimination against LGBT people and partisan gerrymandering are on the agenda.

Today’s third-rail that’s dictating our liberties — sexual deviancy.

Roberts is unwilling to vote in ways that would anger the left, if he would be the swing vote.

So we still have 3 females witches who are the hard core commies plus Roberts, who is now exposed himself as being fully compromised to Obama. Thus that makes him the most dangerous element on the court.
