I love his stance on the 2A, I think it's perfectly in line with the framers intent with that amendment. I also prefer a originalist perspective, as the Constitution, with the BoR, is a wonderfully crafted set of documents. I very much dislike his stance on unions and abortion rights, although I think the case of the migrant in detention requesting the government to pay for her abortion is a poor example of this. Much as Kagan and Sotomayor were a mixed bag for me. I just find it amusing that you, and others like you, expect a GOP POTUS to nominate a SCOTUS appointee in line with Democratic party principles. Laughable to say the least.
So much wrong.
I may be an idealist but I'm also a realist.
Trump probably barely knew Kavanaugh's name...it was provided to him on a list that would make conservatives happy. No surprise and I would have expected nothing less from him.
I'd like to have one that is completely open with their records/past and who didn't lie under oath...twice...before.
But that might be the idealist in me.
