Democrats know Roberts is easily intimidated. He folded on both Obamacare and the 2020 election.
And conservatives know Trump’s “Scalia-like originalist judges” ain’t Scalia-like and aint originalists, no matter how much the Federalist Society picked them and convinced gullible Trumpies that they were.
Roberts called obamacare an additional taxation, which it is, which is a legal function the legislature performs.
If you recall, the Democrats reeled in horror as it was laid out by Roberts that Bozocare wasn’t a takeover of the medical system but a tax to add an addtional layer of beauracracy on top of the existing medical system.
That the American public just sauntered on as if nothing happened.
Me? I lived and worked under I socialized military dictatorship and it’s medical facilities for decades and then I went on Medicare shortly thereafter and I never experienced the Obamacare.
But in essence just by being in the military it was pretty much socialistic medicine and it was also a military dictatorship. The first week in recruit training the Commandinf Officer of the training center a little talk with the incoming recruits and he basically said “like it or not you are now living in a military dictatorship.” And I never forgot that, which put everything into proper perspective and I had no problem with my time in.
