The POTUS is a public servant, not a caudillo.

The Constitution gives him the authority to make SC picks, not some howling mob.

There are a great many conservatives who, silently, are hoping he doesn't knuckle under to the unappeaseables.

"The Constitution gives him the authority to make SC picks, not some howling mob."

So now principled opposition is equivalent to a howling mob. Nice.
