    Unfortunately the Republican strategy for a while has been voting with courts in mind. When the only thing you care about is appointing judges, the game becomes “our team at all costs”

    It’s a winning play in a first-past-the-post voting system. I don’t see it changing without voting reform.

      Literally any Republican would shove conservative justices in the court, so that doesn’t explain the fixation on Trump at all.
