8. "Originalist" is a right wing dog whistle

When repunks talk of a judge to be an "originalist", they really mean one who will corruptly twist the Consitution consistently to side with poweful corporations over human beings.

Problem is, the Founding Fathers never intended the Constitution to protect corporate power at human cost. They're spinning in their graves at how reactionaries warped the Constitution.
