Did Trump Turn on the Federalist Society?

Most times I don't give the windbags over at Digby's Hullabaloo the time of the day but like broken clocks once in a while they come up with some gems....case in point, Trump putting the judiciary on blast because they won't do his bidding (and in the process putting Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society on blast as well).

Seriously, go read it.

Now, to be fair, the judiciary isn't "beholden" to one side or the other; Chief Justice Roberts got it right in his "there are no Trump judges or Obama judges" quote. However, the way a judge rules on cases (and by extension, issues) is - SCOTUS notwithstanding - generally dependent on who appointed them....so to hear Trump put his fellow conservatives on blast was a surprise.
