Also what Robert's thinks his legacy should be and what we think he thinks are two different things. He is absolutely willing to he a partisan hack to kill the sacred cows he wants to go after. He also cares enough about his legacy that he'll play good cop on some other issues where you'd think he'd be partisan. He's basically a  conservative until he gets to kill something on his checklist.

Promoted Pawn posted:Roberts holds Republican values but he differs from the Trumpist flavor of the party in that he actually seems to care, at least a little bit, about how history is going to view his tenure as Chief Justice. If he can find a somewhat reasonable way to make a right wing ruling he’ll take it but he usually won’t start with the partisan ruling and justify it after the fact like Thomas or Gorsuch love to do. Thomas is the least partisan judge on the court. Dude has rulings that are crazy consistent to his stated ideology. It is also true that his ideology is batshit crazy and unique to him. Because of this though, he is one of the most easy judges to predict ruling outcomes on. You probably meant Alito and Gorsuch.
