    This homily sounds super! So, why is it that nominees fr GOP presidents now always cite specific judicial outcomes as the reason for the nomination—like being pro-life or pro gun? You can’t have it both ways—and saying that Democrats behave the same way (true) isn’t it an answer.

    WATCH: : "I've heard the Democrats for most of the summer & they're really bad at politics, you can agree or disagree whether Brett Kavanaugh should be on the court but they just don't play the political game as well as the Republicans"

    Why? What’s wrong with a judge who faithfully applies precedent but then questions its soundness in a concurrence? What norm does that violate? The Supreme Court itself has often favorably cited lower court opinions pointing out problems with SCOTUS precedent.

    I also have concerns with qualified immunity. But if judges want to criticize the Supreme Court's decisions, they should express their personal opinions in law review articles instead of the F.3d.
