Republican judges have been itching to do away with the exclusionary rule. It's not written into the Constitution.

The 4th prohibits unlawful search and seizure but doesn't specify a remedy. The exceptions practically swallow the rule as it is now; attenuation of the taint, good faith, public safety, independent source, inevitable discovery, to name a few.

As a non lawyer reading that list of exceptions, it sounds like it will be easy for the prosecutors to get a few to apply?

Yeah, most likely.
