8 judges confirmed last week...

Valderrama - got 100% of the Democrats who voted.

5 other judges - got at least 30 Democrat votes.

1 judge - got 25 Democrat votes.

The next time Trump complains about an adverse decision in the federal courts, remind him that he is responsible for THIS week.

Better yet - remind Trump that 60% of his District Court nominations have received at least 20 Democrat votes.

keep in mind that up until Trump, it was rare for ANY judge that got confirmed to get more then a handful of NAY votes—most of these judges would have cruised through with no opposition at all, and possibly through voice votes.

It’s only in the Trump era where every judge he nominates gets the Bork light treatment.
