Trump’s OWN Supreme Court pick Gorsuch CRITICIZES him on judge tweet! ..... From the Washington Post: President Trump’s escalating attacks on the judicial branch drew denunciation Wednesday from his Supreme Court nominee, Neil Gorsuch, who told lawmakers that the attacks were “demoralizing” and “disheartening” to the independence of the federal courts. “He certainly expressed to me that he is disheartened by the demoralizing and abhorrent comments made by President Trump about the judiciary,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D- Conn.) told reporters after meeting privately with Gorsuch. Gorsuch’s comments to Blumenthal were confirmed by Ron Bonjean, a member of the judge’s “sherpa” team, a group of aides tasked with helping him navigate the confirmation process. This is actually really good news for those of us who are critical of Trump – if you’re really scared of his authoritarian tendencies, and they’re definitely there, then you should LOVE his pick of Gorsuch because he won’t rubber stamp what Trump wants. He will actually challenge the expansion of the executive power because he’s a real originalist. ... therightscoop.com
