MSNBC Guest: I’m a Democrat, But Trump’s List of SCOTUS Nominees ‘Very Distinguished’

‘I voted for Hillary Clinton’

EXCERPT:

AMAR: "I am a Democrat. I voted for Hillary Clinton. But the list is a distinguished list. And even if the person picked is to the right of Justice Kennedy on some issues, some of them are actually his former law clerks, that would only mean, frankly, from a political science perspective, that the middle of the court shifts to John Roberts. It doesn’t shift all the way to the furthest right person on the court. That’s the new swing justice. There will always be a swing justice, it's just where that swing happens. And just to remind everyone, John Roberts is a very good man. And he actually — he is more conservative than Justice Kennedy.”
