Insights from Chapter 1

#1

The United States Senate rejected the appointment of Judge Robert Bork to be the next Supreme Court justice by a vote of forty-two in favor and fifty-eight against. He was one of the most qualified nominees in American history.

#2

Robert Bork was a highly qualified Supreme Court justice, but his conservative ideology was seen as too much of a risk.

#3

Robert Bork was one of the most qualified Supreme Court justices in American history, but his conservative ideology was seen as too much of a risk.

#4

In what would become an all-too-typical display of political hypocrisy, Senate Republicans in 2020 rushed through the confirmation hearings for Amy Coney Barrett, a federal court of appeals judge who had been President Donald Trump’s nominee to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who had died in September 2020.

#5

Amy Coney Barrett, a federal appeals judge, was President Donald Trump’s nominee to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who had died in September 2020. She is a deeply committed Catholic and part of a conservative group called the People of Praise.

#6

Originalism, which seemed radical in 1987, was mainstream by 2020. If a Democratic Senate had confirmed Amy Coney Barrett in 2020, there would have been no controversy whatsoever.

#7

Originalism is just a fancy word for searching for the original intent of the Constitution, which, if interpreted as a whole, would allow the conservative movement to continue to grow.

#8

The conservative majority on the Supreme Court is likely to be there for a long time, and originalism, which seemed radical in 1987, is mainstream by 2020.

#9

Originalism is the belief that the meaning of a constitutional provision is fixed at the time of ratification, and that judges should give the meaning a primary role in constitutional interpretation.
