The current SCOTUS works exactly as McConnell wanted

He stuffed the court with conservative judges recommended by the Federalist Society.  They have the philosophy of textualism.  The philosophy means interpret the constitution stricly according to the text by the meaning in 1800s.  They only differ between realistic textualism or super literal textualism.   Courage implies giving new meaning to the law.  Courage is a 4-letter word for conservatism.
