Judges randomly assigned, my ass!
The bigger underlying point here is that it even matters who the judge is. Justice is supposed to be blind, no? Obviously it isn’t, and that has huge implications for each and every one of us. If the law schools and Bar associations of our nation had integrity and were committed to justice they would make removing politics from the justice system a top priority. They haven’t, and won’t.
Randomly assigned, but some more than others.
