Trump's three Supreme Court appointees are not "home runs."

I wonder why the author stopped at Kavanaugh and never even mentioned Amy Coney Barrett....

********

I’m more amused at DeSantis thinking he’ll get the opportunity to nominate anyone.

The abortion decision was certainly a good one.

Beyond that some folks stray like Gorsuch on an issue or Kavanaugh on an issue along the way.

This analysis is fair, but none of them are strike-outs either.
They overturned Roe versus freakin’ Wade.
Let me repeat that.
They overturned Roe versus freakin’ Wade... something many of us thought we might never see in our lifetimes.

For Scotus appointments, Trump defeats all GOP predecessors for the last 75 years. Every damned one of them put a loser turn-coat on the court.

Ike gave us Brennan.
Nixon gave us Blackmun.
Ford gave us Stevens.
Reagan gave us O’Connor and Kennedy
Bush 41 gave us Souter
Bush 43 gave us Roberts.

Trump wins. Again.

“Works for me.”

Roe vs Wade was an idiotic ruling from day one.

Don’t forget, Bush 41 gave us Thomas and Bush 43 gave us Alito. And of course, Reagan gave us Scalia for 30 years !!

Good article although I don’t know why they crapped out on the decisions of ACB. But Kavanaugh is terrible. Thomas is the gold standard. Alito is very good. The other gold standard was taken out by a pillow.

Thank you for good laugh before hitting the sack.

Trump did better job with SCOTUS nominees than Reagan or either Bush.

The Bushes nor any establishment Republican would have put judges on SCOTUS that overturned Roe. Overturning Roe is most consequential decision made by SCOTUS in more 60 years.

DeSnakis supported Trump’s nominees on his twitter account in glowing terms.

No, not if you actually measure them based on whole body of work.

I think the justices are probably pretty good, overall. They’ve had some flaws and some “home runs”, but the average is what should define them. I think pretty good.

Yes, and lucky Trump that he got to pick 3 “conservative” justices in his measly 4 years. Partly aided by the much-maligned McConnell, including the fact he got to pick that first one.

If Trump didn’t get the opportunity to pick more than 1, which would be much more typical if a 1-term, then this would be moot.

Hugh Hewitt is the pied piper of the Republican deep state. He was big on Mitt Romney for President and a lot of Senators who turned out to less than ideal.

I haven’t forgotten their home runs, but their whiffs can’t be forgotten either.

“I wonder why the author stopped at Kavanaugh and never even mentioned Amy Coney Barrett....”

Maybe because she has been absolutely 100% conservative on 2A cases, she voted to overturn Roe v Wade, she voted 100% against the EPA in the wetlands case, she voted in favor of state of Alabama and against creating another black Alabama House district.

I guess she doesn’t meet some impossible FR Purity Test, but she’s been a good Justice. Thank God we got her instead of Merrick Garland. Imagine him with a lifetime appointment to the Court.

Reagan would have given us Bork if not for the deep state Borking him.
