Don't you wish Trump had picked a Methodist for the Supreme Court?
Barrett is more of a textualist than an originalist, although she is an expert in the latter. Gorsuch holds the same view and the Chief may as well.
There are two kinds if Republican appointees. One kind says the right things and the others are true believers. She seems like the second. For every Scalia, there is a Souter. Plot it out if you won't take my word for it.
As far as her esoteric Charismatic theology, as long as she does not speak in tongues at oral arguments or in Friday Conference, it won't be a problem.
There are lots of executive branch alums on the Court, including Roberts, Kagan and Kavanaugh. If you want an elected official, I am sure Obama is available. Bill and Hillary are too old, although MSW did call Hillary a Methodist church lady in 2016.
