Admittedly it’s a small sample size, but, so far Gorsuch ranks between Souter and O’Connor. At the same point in John Roberts’ SCOTUS career, we though he was great. Too early not to say Gorsuch is a John Paul Stevens or David Souter.
Excellent list. And Trump’s just getting started. By the way, you might want to add banning transgenders from the military to the list. Certainly a worthy accomplishment in my book.
