Don't be complacent. There are plenty of big state "conservatives" who think they're just as capable as running your life as the communists. There are a lot of ways to create terrible precedent that isn't as obvious as "bake the cake, bigot!"
You don't waste your 1st round draft pick and $20 million dollar contract only to say "They may suck, but at least they weren't as bad as the last guy"
I don't necessarily disagree with you but I'm not the one making the pick and there's nothing I can do about it now that it's happened. Just trying to look on the bright side of the issue. I'd rather have a nominal conservative or conservative leaning moderate than a Ginsburg any day of the week.
I get what you're saying, but SCOTUS decisions are binary. She could be just a little tiny bit right of RBG and comparatively better but a vote with the leftists is still a vote with the leftists at the end of the day.
Even if she's sub optimal compared to ginsburg she shifts the court away from liberal activism and towards the constitution

Have you heard of the Cleveland Browns?

Time will tell the tale. All we can do is keep fighting and keep the faith till then.
