Justice Gorsuch did NOT join Kagan’s opinion in full. He wrote a an opinion concurring in part and concurring in the judgment.

The bottom line is, his vote was the same as hers'.

Sure. Only the result counts. Legal reasoning has no place in SCOTUS decisions.

An opinion concurring in the judgment is not “the same” vote. By definition, concurring on the judgment means that the vote is on different grounds.

Supreme Court decisions are more complex than the picture ASSPRESS tries to paint to feeble minds.
