"We're concerned about the practical implications of individual states being able to take candidates off the ballot."

Nothing more constitutional than nullifying the Constitution.

The doublethink being flagrantly exhibited by the court at this point should beggar belief… but honestly, I don’t think anybody is surprised anymore. To be perfectly frank: we expect it. Overall national confidence in the integrity of the Supreme Court is fairly shattered nowadays.

I guess Roberts’s plan to burnish his historical legacy is to help the Republic of Gilead establish itself and ask them to build him a statue in exchange. What a fucking limpdick.
