Yes I agree, but I think that reputation matters to most justices. If you're in Roberts' position, you know that for decades, or even centuries, after your retirement histories will be written about you and the impact you had on the US. This has to weigh on one's mind. I can't for life of me believe that popular opinion isn't considered at all by most justices, possibly Thomas excepted. The vitriolic reaction that was seen in response to Citizens United would be tenfold if they struck this law down.
