After reading the judge’s opinion in the article, I completely see where he is coming from.

He’s also the kind of fricktard that makes the rest of us laugh at libertarians. He has decided that somehow, there will be enough behind the support of his reinterpretation of the commerce clause to back his opinion up at the SCOTUS level.

Is it textual? Sure. Thanks to precedent though, a textual reading of the commerce clause is a reinterpretation.

This is going to get overturned on appeal and I think we all know that. The judiciary is not going to scrap 4/5ths of the federal government because of one libertarian judge.

There's always still a BS allusion to the commerce clause when they justify these federal laws though. They always find a strange way to connect it to that, but in this case what would the argument that connects this to the commerce clause be?

basically

this is the libertarian equivalent of "at least it started a conversation"

you have to imagine he could have chosen a better case to make this point, though
