You are using words like liberal, independents, conservative but those have nothing to do with it. They are opposed to him because he is a federalist.

The left wing theory holds that if FTAA(South America) were added to CAFTA & NAFTA, and, 5 Federalists were on SCOTUS, then, the right case would come along and reach SCOTUS, in which, the five federalists would use the case to declare the New Deal to be unconstitutional.

The dems have been fighting the federalists since 2001, but they couldn't stop Alito and Roberts, giving 4 seats to the federalists.

This is why Trump got elected. He said he would change NAFTA so the left wingers abandoned Hillary and voted for Trump.

For what I was talking about. I said exactly what I meant.

That’s an interesting take. Assuming that Trump gets to choose at least one more judge, they’ll most likely be pro-Constitution federalist judges. Could it be that Trump’s legacy will be to restore states’ rights?
