What Trump has done to the courts, explained
No president in recent memory has done more to change the judiciary than Donald Trump.

Trump hasn’t simply given lots of lifetime appointments to lots of lawyers. He’s filled the bench with some of the smartest, and some of the most ideologically reliable, men and women to be found in the conservative movement. Long after Trump leaves office, these judges will shape American law — pushing it further and further to the right even if the voters soundly reject Trumpism in 2020.

Unless they are successful in delegitimizing his election to the presidency and then they will claim his appointments are not legitimate so they should be removed from their posts.

Sounds implausible but nothing is beyond the pale for these howling jackals.

True but removing that many judges would be a massive undertaking.

The truth is, by worshipping at the altar of Trump, Republicans haven’t simply ensured conservative dominance of one branch of government. They may have entrenched conservative governance for decades.


And that, my friends, is why it has been worth putting up with the general mess Trump has brought with him to the presidency.
