Holy shit you guys are morons.
I said Trump “paid” them with their appointments. ie. to him, if he gets you on the Supreme Court, then you now know you have to “pay” him back in kind. In other words, do some shit using your power to benefit him.
The problem for him is they didn’t have to do anything for him BEFORE he appointed then. Now they are appointed, they KNOW they don’t actually have to do shit that will be obviously against the law to benefit him. He can’t touch them since they have lifetime appointments.
