Just because the conservative block in the supreme court didn't deliver every victory the right wanted does mean the court was more moderate this term.

Don't forget to heap plenty of blame on McConnell.
Trump largely just took (federalist society's) recomendations and ran with it.

it was McConnell that blocked Obama from getting some of his nominations in. Which put us in this position int he first place.
Trump was the GOP's useful idiot- and while he's geniunely an awful person who should never be confused with human beings... Much of Trump's actions weren't his idea.
