If you want to take your logic to it's conclusion The views of the of the majority of Americans is, in this case being represented by the US Senate.  Whom the American people elected to approve of any Supreme Court Justice nomination.  So in a left handed way, you are correct, Gorsuch is representing the views of the American People .... (by the same logic, Garland was rejected) 
I can't wait to see the left's total meltdown if Kennedy or Ginsburg retire in the next couple years
