The second is his selection of appeals court judge Merrick Garland to be attorney general.
Despite nonstop media pressure, Senate Republicans held fast, dragging their feet on confirmation hearings for Garland in the hopes that a Republican president would succeed Obama.
Not only did the country escape Garland, three new conservative justices - Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett - are now on the nation's highest court, thanks to Trump.
Based on recent remarks, we can see that by not having the supposedly "Moderate" Garland on the nation's highest court, Constitution-loving Americans dodged a bullet.
Under Garland, expect more investigations of twice-impeached, now-citizen Trump and those who follow him.
Garland has reason to despise Trump, if only because he missed a Supreme Court slot after Trump unexpectedly beat Hillary Clinton, who, by the way, does deserve to be investigated.
Politically, Garland may be the perfect pick as Biden's attorney general.
