That's a interesting thought, but, what presidents do that. Kennedy was thought to be a conservative and he was middle of the road nominated by Reagan.A normal president would nominate a moderate like Kennedy... Or Garland.WASHINGTON, D.C.—Still reeling from Trump’s previous Supreme Court nominee, Neil Gorsuch, Democrats plan to scrutinize any new nominee to ensure that he or she isn’t yet another crony of something called “The Constitution,” Senate Democrats announced Friday.You understand wrongly.It's my understanding that the liberals think that the Constitution is a living breathing document that can be
massaged to mean whatever belief they have at a given time.
“Time and time again, we find progressive laws getting struck down,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a Senate address. “And it’s always — always — the ones the Constitution is against. These right-wing judges don’t think for themselves, they just do whatever the Constitution says. And it’s time for that to end.”Senate Democrats Demand Supreme Court Nominee Not Be Unduly Influenced By U.S. Constitution
And there ya have it. It truly boggles the mind.
Both picks by Obama are true liberals and not middle of the road but haven been proven to lean to the left.
Why should Trump feel compelled to look for a moderate judge? I don't know of any president that would have done that.
IMO, a Constitutional Conservative is the order of the day.
