I dont think he is Scalia II at all. Nothing I have seen or read has lead me to believe he hates people the way Scalia did. If Gorsuch was Scalia II he would not be ripping Donald for his actions with the Federal Judge he would be attacking the Judge.
Gorsuch is more than qualified for the job and is about as highly respected in the field as it gets. From all accounts he doesnt let his personal beliefs cloud his judgement he acts on what is written and whether it holds up to the strict scrutiny of the Constitution. He isnt going to be the guy to vote down Roe v. Wade because it was passed legally and doesnt violate any specific law.
I would prefer a liberal on the Court but Gorsuch isnt that big of a difference from Merrick Garland...in fact arent they buddies?
