Simple as that. Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch are Republicans first, judges second.

The difference between the GOP and the Democratic Party is the Demnocratic Party respects the instutions of our government and the traditions that make our government free. The GOP saw a weakness, that they could install corrupt judges who will take orders from the party. The Democrats never would consider that because, although they nominate judges whose ideas reflect the parties, they would never dream of corrupting the Supreme Court with politics.
