"Roberts was driven more by politics than precedent"

I've read more than one person theorizing that Roberts often votes the way he does, not because he's a moderate, but because he's trying to keep the Republican party from shooting itself in the foot any further -- if he did NOT keep them from overturning Roe v. Wade (for example), they'd get shellacked even worse in the next election.

I don't KNOW what his motives/beliefs are, but that's certainly a plausible theory.

I'm amazed he's even wearing a mask.
