War heroes, Gold Star Families, US security agencies, other Republicans, women, the Pope, to name a few. And now the courts. Putin is proud.

IMO, Roberts is intensely interested in the reputation of SCOTUS and conservative or not, I think Roberts has no hesitancy on smacking Trump around to benefit and protect the rep of the Roberts Court.

IMO, this time, Trump picked the wrong target.

Our family saw what Roberts did yesterday and we discussed and thought since Roberts wants keep SCROTUS independent from Republican influence (as we know he's an operative) he may shift to the left just to screw Trump. Hope Trump keeps doing that shit and we just may get that.
