What most conservatives want is not a ‘conservative’ on the Supreme Court, they want an Originalist, a person who supports the Constitution, and they want the Supreme Court to NOT be a political naked power organ. The want the Supreme Court to be a place where law is upheld, the Constitution is honored, there is interpretation of the law, and law has meaning.
It’s opposite of the idea of the ‘living Constitution’ where if you have enough votes and you want to impose your policy preferences on 300 million Americans, than that’s what you go to the Supreme Court to do.
Politics are not part of what the Supreme Court should be weighing in.
I joined Kevin McCullough on his radio show to discuss.
