for all the hollering about the conservative nature of this appointment, keep in mind that Pres Obama's first two appointments are 2 highly liberal judges by their voting above. And per this WPost article,
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.63fb4e0bcd2f Garland was not nearly as "swing" as the liberals would want people to believe.
Trump needs to appoint a constitutional conservative regardless of what the liberals in the Senate, and in the media would have people think.
IF the country is going to be a socialist country it should be because the liberal progressives win at the ballot box, not because they put 5 highly liberal justices on the court.
