The Case for Trump 2024: The Courts
If you have heard it once, you have heard it a million times.
Donald Trump’s first term was a total failure. Nothing was accomplished.
While this is partially true on the legislative front, it has far more to do with Congress than with Trump. The country is bitterly polarized and locked in a partisan stalemate. Neither party commands majorities in Congress large enough to pass major legislation due to the Senate filibuster. Obama, Trump and Biden have all run into the same wall and have been forced to rely on budget reconciliation.
Since 2020, I have warmed on Donald Trump as it has become clear that his first term was more impactful than I originally thought. He succeeded in appointing 226 federal judges including a third of the Supreme Court with the appointments of Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett. The last two appointments were the most impactful in that Kavanaugh and Barrett replaced Anthony Kennedy and Ruth Bader Ginsburg who were the decisive swing and progressive votes respectively. Barrett was only confirmed days before the 2020 election and the significance of that shift has become clear under Biden.
In 2024, we can say that “Trump accomplished nothing” except for Dobbs (2022) which ended Roe v. Wade and nationwide legal abortion, Bruen (2022) which significantly expanded gun rights and Students for Fair Admissions (2023) which severely restricted affirmative action. In recent years, there have been other decisions on subjects like border wall funding, homeless camps, presidential immunity, bump stocks, the power of federal agencies, January 6 defendants and disqualifying Trump from running for president. Trump’s legacy of tilting the Supreme Court to the Right is still paying out dividends.
Joe Biden came to power promising to appoint “the first black woman” to the Supreme Court and made good on his promise with the confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson. The next president could end up replacing Clarence Thomas or Sonia Sotomayor which could shift the Supreme Court in a better or worse direction. President Kamala Harris replacing Clarence Thomas would only have the effect of reempowering John Roberts whose power has been greatly diminished since the death of Ginsberg. Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett have voted for the wrong side on all sorts of decisions. It is rare though when two or three of them vote on the same decision as badly as John Roberts. There is more room for error. It is better for Trump to appoint the next several hundred federal judges than Kamala Harris.
Kamala Harris will appoint judges who will trash the First Amendment, Second Amendment and the Tenth Amendment. Trump can be expected to appoint conservative judges in the mold of the people he has already appointed. They will also be around long after he exits the political stage. The Supreme Court has brought his record on social issues up from poor to decent since 2021.
As usual, the point of this article is to explain my own thinking because otherwise you would not understand the shifts in my position. I am not telling you to vote for Donald Trump. You are capable of making your own decisions. This is my attempt to flesh out my own inner monologue.
1. The Right finally moves on from Trump in 2028
2. The Alt-Right has terrible political instincts
3. Joe Biden has been a sedative as president
4. Activist brain blinds us and creates prejudice against conservative normies
5. Trump is the leader because he is the best of the Republicans
6. “Worse is better” is a cope and was tried in 2020 and maintains the status quo
7. Voting is not a sacrament. Few know this
8. Voting is not going to change anything about Zionism in the next four years
9. Activists have the chance to ride the Trump wave without making the same mistakes
10. Activists are running out of material because the Overton Window has shifted so much
11. Donald Trump is a hunted dog who has been backed into a corner
12. Donald Trump is a divider, not a uniter and his legacy will ultimately be useful for us
13. Winning is still better than losing at baseline
14. The Left is still the enemy and wants to take away our freedoms
15. The cause of anti-Zionism depends on internet free speech
16. Donald Trump is reviled by our elites because he is an obstacle to their agenda
17. Donald Trump’s Supreme Court appointments have been improving his legacy
