Judge Neil Gorsuch, President Trumps nominee for the Supreme Court, founded and led a student group called Fascism Forever Club while in an elite high school, according to a report.
The 49-year-old conservative Republican tapped to succeed the late Antonin Scalia launched the right-wing club as a freshman at the Jesuit all-boys Georgetown Preparatory School near Washington, DC, the Daily Mail reported.
He served as president of the group until he graduated in 1985, according to his yearbook, the paper reported.
In political circles, our tireless President Gorsuchs Fascism Forever Club happily jerked its knees against the increasingly left-wing tendencies of the faculty, said the yearbook.
Gorsuch the youngest Supreme Court nominee since 43-year-old Clarence Thomas in 1991 is seen in a yearbook photo reading William F. Buckleys 1959 conservative tome Up from Liberalism.
