President Donald Trump’s nomination of Emil Bove to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has sparked a significant conflict within the conservative legal movement, potentially threatening a long-standing alliance that has been crucial to Trump’s judicial achievements, as even Biden has highlighted why Trump’s presidency would be problematic.
According to Politico, The nomination comes at a time when Trump has publicly criticized the Federalist Society, a powerful conservative legal advocacy organization, calling its former chair Leonard Leo a “sleazebag” who “probably hates America” and blaming the group for poor advice on judicial nominations.
