Of course, I meant Republicans.
And I was talking about the general election, and the Democrats.
But fair enough -- Trump certainly wasn't my first, fifth, or even tenth choice among the GOP primary candidates in 2016. I was really worried about what he was going to do on health care in particular, because he made a few noises that sounded to me like single-payer. Fortunately, he did do his best to kill ObamaCare even if McCain ultimately torpedoed that. And for me, he came through absolute aces on judicial nominations -- my No. 1 issue -- and has done more on immigration than any Republican President I can recall.
But I really made my point with the 2020 general election in mind. I can't actually
know that Trump will continue using the Federalist Society for guidance on judicial nominees, and I can't be 100%
certain he's still going to be pushing hard for border security. But considering that the Democrats are all promising the exact opposite...I'll cast my vote for horse that
might win versus the one that's a guarantee to be running in the wrong direction.
