Yesterday,
Donald Trump released a list of eleven judges he would consider appointing to
the Supreme Court. Conservatives,
including some not at all well disposed towards Trump, are impressed.
I find this
significant. Conservatives like me
knew Hillary Clinton would appoint horrific Supreme Court Justices but also had
little to no confidence in Trump’s wisdom in making SCOTUS appointments. But now Trump is laying out that his
Supreme Court appointments would likely be excellent or at least far better
than Hillary’s. And it may make
Supreme Court appointments the issue it should be in this election.
Frankly, this
assurance makes it more likely that I will hold my nose and vote for
Trump. And I am someone who has
been profoundly unhappy with him as a perusal of some past posts will reveal.
Thus, if I am
any indicator at all, Trump’s move was a smart and significant one politically
as well.

Trump has mentioned he is working with the Heritage Foundation, which is a good thing. He also has said that these are only suggestions, which is not a good thing, even if it is truthful.
Personally, I plan to take a handkerchief to the poll with me, since I will be holding my nose so hard it will bleed when I vote.
