    Lol. They absolutely do listen to scholars, and just like any other political group, they act on what they say when it’s convenient.

    Federalist society is covering its bets here - putting up sone legal footholds for old establishment conservatism to use if they become handy - while doing so in such a way they don’t put themselves on the outs too unforgivably if Trump and his ilk weasel this way through this mess like they have so many times before.
