The Supreme Court was the issue that carried Election Day

Election Day has come and gone, its results sending shockwaves across the nation. Most political pundits totally misread the level of discontent felt by Americans towards their government — discontent that launched President-elect Donald Trump into the presidency in perhaps the biggest upset in American history.

Credit for Trump’s win will endlessly be debated by the same disgraced pundits and pollsters that predicted a Hillary Clinton blowout. We’re already seeing unsubstantiated accusations of voter intimidation, sexism and racism. One issue, however, certainly played a role in the millions of evangelical Christians, Catholics and other social conservatives who voted for Trump: The future makeup of the Supreme Court.
