Their arrogance is amazing.
And McConnell continues to SLOW CRAWL scheduling votes on Trump’s District Court judicial nominees. I guess he’s too focused on advancing CHINESE interests to bother with new federal judges.
It’s not just judges who have to be changed; it’s the entire system which permits judges to dictate to the people.
Their rulings have to be made to apply only to the specific case at hand, and not to any other cases.
No more judge-made “case law”.
That practice has been so abused as to render it unpalatable
in a democracy.
A long way to go though.
We still have 2 conservative, 2 moderates, 1 liberal, and 4 Constitution-hating nutcases on the Supreme Court.
Slide out to 5:20 for the meat of Newt’s lesson on judges!
Can someone get this to Trump?

Courts subordinate to the Supreme Court are governed by rules set by Congress. Congress could fix this tomorrow if they wanted. They don’t want to.
In Trump’s first year, he was nominating judges without any input from sitting U.S. Senators.
That was a very good thing.
In 2017, tragically, Trump has returned to the old method, and now sitting Senators, including Democrats, are essentially nominating new judges.
The last batch of judges that went through had multiple nominations with 30-40 Democrat Senators voting to confirm.
For at least the last 20 years, only Red State Democrats vote to confirm Conservative judges.
Today, when you see 30-40 Democrats voting for a judge, it means Trump is putting a Left Wing activist on the bench.
