It shows Roberts NOT thinking as a jurist - what does the law and the Constitution say - but as a legislator - how can I make this work.

Strangling the Constitution by altering - ipso facto - the pure text of the law, in order to make the legislation work, is what is only to be done DURING THE LEGISLATIVE PROCESS, not by the judges.

That is exactly what is going on.

Also, take the 2nd Amendment. Justice Thomas publicly stated that Roberts didn't even want to take on these cases, so he just ignores the Constitutional violations. Thomas said the 2nd Amendment is now a "disfavored right."

We don't really have a "Supreme Court" any longer. We have a super, rubber stamp legislature that is entirely political.
