Yeah…he’s a Dubya appointee and therefore in on the game of trying to ram through judicial decisions that institutionalize the cooked-up excuses spoonfed to the GOP/Teatrolls in control of red states by fuckers like ALEC, Heritage, Judicial Watch, et al. I think “it’s not racism because it was politically motivated and just coincidentally happened to target minorities” was also tried in the TX cases before the 5th Circuit over their blatantly racist redistricting, wasn’t it? They’ve been itching to try that one for a long time and Roberts is just the type to help them with it given his views on affirmative action, etc. The idea that “it’s not racism if you’re targeting minorities because of the way they vote, not because of their race”, is fucking absurd, but I guarantee you the SCOTUS picks they ram through after destroying the filibuster are going to be itching for the chance to help make that the law.
