http://www.snopes.com/supreme-court-justices-stand/ a complete fabrication is 'mostly' false. "What's true" is not even relevant to the claim.

I think what you're saying is that it should flatly be "False" and not just "Mostly False".

Per their stated rating system [1], 'Mostly False' is defined as "This rating indicates that the primary elements of a claim are demonstrably false."

The slim kernel of truth in it is that the fake letter references a real court case involving the Supreme Court and Gorsuch - which seems like why it was only Mostly.
