I seriously doubt Trump actually picked his SC nominees. Some aid probably presented him with a list of three names and he picked the coolest sounding ones. They are Federalist Society judges, not MAGA republicans. They don’t give a shit about protecting Trump (except maybe the one with a huge conflict of interest)
You can look to Leonard Leo as one source of said list.
NPR/On the Media’s We Don’t Talk About Leonard gives a pretty good report of that asshole.
He was apparently screening candidates by asking them if they'd rule in his favor in given circumstances
They were perfect interviews.
Believe me, they were the best interviews ever. 🙌☝️
And there is nothing to force them to do what they said they would once they are confirmed. Congress would have to impeach them and remove them from office, and that definitely isn't going to happen.
