The conservative judges are judicial activists too. Both sides do this. They're just judicial activists that you agree with. With so many things the constitution is unclear, or vacant, and they have to make it up as they go and justify it in an ad hoc way. You can tell when they overturned roe because of something something oh it had no longstanding tradition or whatever. You know what else doesn't have longstanding tradition? Lots of things. AR 15s. But you can bet they'd rule that the 2nd applies to them too. Gay marriage, interracial marriage, the list goes on. I'm betting gay marriage will get overturned next on similar rationale as roe, but since Clarence Thomas is married to a white woman, they won't overturn that.
If Hillary had won, she wouldn't have appointed 3 judges, the Republicans would've blocked the 3rd saying it was too close to the next election like they did with Obama. then some said they would apply the same standard if it were a republican near the end of their term, then they proved what liars and holders of double standards they were when push came to shove.
