Loving turned on the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment, which is at its strongest where racial matters are in play.

Obergefell turned primarily on the due process clause, as did Roe.

And the point being made is that it is insane for Democrats to be pushing for inter-racial marriage bans just to troll Thomas.
