(46,166 posts)1. Roberts and Kav were both involved in the Bush v Gore case
Roberts clerked for Rehnquist and helped frame the Bush argument for his attorneys to appeal to the Chief Justice. That's why Roberts got on the court and became Chief Justice when Rehnquist stepped down.
You can find documentation of this on the web. It's an old story.

Welp, there goes any shred of hope that Roberts will be impartial. He's in as deep as Kavanaugh.
