Little wonder that Trump picked Neil Gorsuch for the stolen Supreme Court seat. Gorsuch joked/bragged he founded and was president of the Fascism Forever Club at Georgetown Prep School, according to reporting done by Michael OLoughlin, a reporter at America: The Jesuit Review, and tweeted below:

Also of note is the quote, Gorsuch included on his yearbook page from Henry Kissinger, which is The illegal we do immediately, the unconstitutional takes a little longer. He graduated from Georgetown Prep in 1985.
Gorsuch liked that Kissinger quote so much, he also used it again in his yearbook from Columbia University, as discovered by Laura Rozen, a reporter at AI-Monitor in the tweet below. Gorsuch graduated from Columbia with a B.A. in 1988.

During his time at Columbia, he was a columnist for the student newspaper. He also was disqualified from his student senate campaign for breaking election rules.
Heres how the Columbia Spectator reported on Gorsuch taking personal responsibility yeah right, hes a conservative. Blame someone else!
Later during the election season, Gorsuch was disqualified from the election for breaking a rule about how many posters could be displayed on a dorm floor. He then criticized the harshness of the election committees rules, and said that he did not know about the rule stating that no more than two posters can be put on a floor and that the friends who helped him poster were responsible for most of the violations.
But dont worry these are just youthful jokes from a very conservative young man, okay?
Ha-ha funny, right?

(63 posts)3. Looks like he was already suffering
from white persecution syndrome to found a club called "Fascism Forever".
First question when they get him in front of committee:
"Why did you start a club called 'Fascism Forever'?"
This will show he had an early chip on his shoulder, perhaps about how white's were treated.
Second question:
"Do you feel white people are unfairly treated?"
Third question:
"Did you not realize at the time that some Jewish students were attending your college who surely had lost relatives to fascism?"
