I don’t view it as helping Trump, but he obviously likes Kavanaugh. That probably means he is a creature of the Swamp. That I don’t like.

That is dumb logic. John McCain has voted for every GOP-picked Supreme Court justice. Are Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch bad too? Maybe McCain simply wants to move the Court to the right, and there's not some nefarious deep state swamp conspiracy behind it.

That is dumb logic.

Not when you pair it with other facts, like assisting Roberts with the re-write of Obamacare so it would pass Constitutional muster. Like Kennedy working out a deal to resign if Trump will appoint Kavanaugh. Like Judge Napolitano this morning indicating that Kavanaugh favors big government. No, McCain is just one more tidbit of evidence that Kavanaugh has swamp creature blood running in his veins. McCain certainly has a tough time setting aside his obvious visceral hate for Trump, but he did for Kavanaugh.

Maybe Trump made another side deal as a part of this appointment to get something he wants. I have seen and heard enough to be plenty skeptical. I love what Trump is doing so far and he has my support, but he is a negotiator in a give and take environment. The evidence that I have seen suggest that Kavanaugh just might not be the best and most reliable choice for the sake of conservatism. A Constitutional Constructionist would not advocate a re-write of the Obamacare law to make it hold up to Constitutional scrutiny. I'm sorry, but Kavanaugh is being sold as something that he is not.
