Amy Coney Barrett is a woman of “unwavering loyalty to the constitution,” says Donald Trump. That does not mean that she is grateful to him. The president plays with fire when he thinks he can go to the Supreme Court if necessary.

reOnald Trump did not say that given certain uncertainties it was necessary to have a constitutional court capable of making decisions quickly. Nor did he emphasize that the highest legal authority should not be paralyzed if it has to decide the presidential election after November 3. Instead, he claimed, without any evidence, that Democrats were using vote-by-mail to falsify the result. And he said bluntly: “I think this will go to the Supreme Court. And I think it’s very important that we have nine judges. “

The constitutional judges, of whom he will have nominated three, should everything go according to plan in the Senate in the coming weeks and must secure a second term for him. In a way, the Supreme Court had granted him his first four years in the White House. In 2016, Trump was elected by many people only because he promised to nominate only attorneys to the Supreme Court, which the arch-conservative Federalist Society had selected. Evangelicals, many Catholics, and parts of Orthodox Judaism accepted Trump with the prospect of winning the Kulturkampf and revisiting the preceding trials from the days of left-liberal hegemony. Your bill has been worth it.
