How Chief Justice Roberts Is Moving SCOTUS Even Further to the Right
This conservative bent with mixed results is apparent in the chief’s rulings about President Trump specifically and the president generally. The chief wrote the majority opinion in four major cases about presidential power: the two tax cases, the Dreamer case, and the CFPB case.
This isn’t the all-out grant of power to the president that the court’s most conservative justices wanted, but these opinions are also not a clear check on presidential power. The chief’s hands-off approach in the Senate’s impeachment trial, where Republicans were hellbent on acquitting Trump, is further evidence that he doesn’t want to be too aggressive in thwarting the president.
In other words, ignore the headlines saying that Chief Justice Roberts has turned into a Trump-hating liberal and that everyone was wrong that this would be a conservative Supreme Court. Yes, the chief rebuked the president in some key cases this year and sided with the court’s liberals on a few important matters, but with Chief Justice Roberts firmly controlling the court now, it has tilted ever more conservative.
