Harvard law professor Noah Feldman, who was a star witness in favor of impeaching Donald Trump, writes that Trump Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett is "a brilliant lawyer, a genuine and good person...when she is confirmed, I am going to accept it as the consequence of the constitutional rules we have and the choices we collectively and individually have made. And I'm going to be confident that Barrett is going to be a good justice, maybe even a great one—even if I disagree with her all the way."
Feldman is taking flak from the left for that piece—Stanford law professor Michele Dauber let lose some particularly nasty tweets in response—but it strikes me as a brave move, a welcome departure from the usual partisan pattern in these situations of desperately trying everything to block whomever the other side puts up.
