You're wasting your time. Aggiehank is a Democrat ... He will never attempt to see your viewpoint or concede that you might have a valid point.

Chief Justice John Roberts

I partially agree. I would say that he's LESS RELEVANT. But look, Kavanaugh and even Gorsuch have both cast a couple of funky votes the past couple of years. Kavanaugh in particular seems to still act more like the "Bush guy" he always was instead of a true Trump patriot. You'd think Kavanaugh would've learned his lesson based on the way the Swamp treated him AND HIS FAMILY, but he still seems more ESTABLISHMENT than anything else.
AND, let's give ACB some time to show us how she's going to trend, too. I feel GREAT about her, but sometimes justices will surprise you a little bit. As an example, I assumed Kagan and Sotomayor would basically be twin robots, but Kagan has shown to be a much better Justice than the wise Latina.
The cause of upholding and saving the Constitution took a big step forward yesterday. But, I can't wait for Trump to nominate one more. If we get 6 solid justices (not counting Roberts, of course), then the great document created by our Founding Fathers should absolutely be safe.

if he votes in the minority then Thomas gets to assign who writes the majority opinion since he is the senior justice.

LOL, you know Hank has been searching for a credible article that proves he's "consistent", and he's probably pounding his fist on his desk because he can't find it.
Meanwhile, you provide 2 articles proving his "inconsistency", and all he can do is post some retarded pic and disappear in the ether, still patting himself on the back for his meager effort points he scored by simply arguing against his foes.

I really don't think he is. But he does view himself as some sort of Thurston Howell/Buckley clone and therefore way too intelligent for this forum, so he's loathe to ever publicly agree with any sort of consensus view here. Even when there's one he agrees with he'll find some small aspect of it to argue with and ignore the main point. It's weird, but whatever.

Cucks really like to fantasize they are the lone voice crying in the wilderness like some modern day Jeremiah. The more they are mocked, the more they are convinced of their righteousness. They get sort of a thrill from being spat on.

Something from an outlet that is not teetering on the precipice of falling completely OFF the right edge of the political spectrum would be nice.
Are you seriously waiting for CNN to report this?

If you look at his rulings from a jurisprudential perspective rather than an ideological one, they are almost uniformly-consistent.
And you’re full of shite, as usual. He saddled this country with Obamacare, knowing it was blatantly unconstitutional, letting democrats play the shell game of tax, fee, penalty, depending on who they were talking to. Ideology indeed.

2 more justices to go for TRUMP.
GLORIOUS!

You just want him to be ideological, so you create a Grishamesque fantasy/conspiracy to "explain" rulings that you do not like. All the while INSISTING that you do not want an ideological judge, but rather a Strict Constructionist.
the talking heads on fox told me to be big mad at roberts, though.

If you needed them to tell you that after his Nevada decision you might be a moron.

It’s worth noting that Roberts’s episodic deviations from conservative orthodoxy have tended to involve laws and regulations — cases where Congress or the executive branch can fix anything they think the court got wrong — more often than constitutional interpretation, where the court gets the last say.

Uhhh Hank..shouldn't there be 3 orange justices with several more to come?

From your perspective, we have an opinion piece from a Far Right publication and another opinion piece from the pet "Conservative" of a mainstream publication. I have provided an opinion piece from that same publication.
The difference? One of the three authors is an attorney and actually understands the issues.

Trump seems to be appointing solid Strict Constructionists. Good for him. Barrett is a bit too SoCon for my taste and I would have preferred Lagoa, but you won't see me claiming that she is anything other than a solid pick.

They most assuredly are not.

Ok, so now we're at the not-surprising-at-all conclusion that reasonable people disagree on this and their political persuasion may influence that. Which is a long way from your cartoonish
"You just want him to be ideological, so you create a Grishamesque fantasy/conspiracy to "explain" rulings that you do not like. All the while INSISTING that you do not want an ideological judge, but rather a Strict Constructionist."
Personally, I don't think the "strict constructionist" label belongs within 100 yards of Roberts after his clownish Nevada decision, but that's just me being Grishamesque, I suppose.
