Yes - the flipping liberal media can’t tell the truth even when it is mathematical and public for all to see.

A 7-2 USSC opinion is actually pretty rare; more than 2/3’s of USSC votes are actually closer.

The only hold outs were RBG and Sotomayor.

7-2 is a blowout victory in USSC terms.

"7-2 is a blowout victory in USSC terms."

But it has nothing to do with how broad or narrow the issues resolved are. IN fact the narrower the decision the easier it is to get consensus, the broader the implications the harder it is to get consensus.

No surprise on those two but WOW they shifted Kagan and Breyer to the majority....wish I was in the room to hear the discussion on how that happened.
