Clarence Thomas rulling his own marriage illegal? 🤔

They’d just rule that you can’t retroactively kill marriages, but future ones could be banned. Or something similar.

He’ll be asked (forced) to step down during this Republican’s President’s term, and he’ll be replaced by a christian nationalist white dude. And then they’ll overturn Loving v Virginia.

Nah he’ll get declared an “Honorary Aryan” so the marriage remains legal.

Then when the 2028 auto-coup happens, he’ll get purged like what happened with the Jewish Nazis.

It will be known as the the Night of the Long Knives AR-15s

Leopard… Face… ye know

🤦‍♂️

It’s scary how realistic that sounds.

That’s definitely one way to get a divorce

Privileged people like him will certainly expect there to be workaround and loopholes. He’d just get a marriage cert in a state that allows it. Depend on it.

In the abortion ruling, Thomas listed off a whole bunch of civil rights-related rulings he wanted to revisit. Obergefell (gay marriage) was among them. Loving, however, was conspicuously absent, and there’s a pretty obvious reason why.

I don’t doubt it. However if Trump’s team sent it down the pipe, I doubt he’d fight much - even a principled man finds it difficult to stand up to their friends, and that he ain’t.
