This will be Trump's legacy. He may have three more SCOTUS picks next year. Thomas and Kennedy through retirement. RBG is on her last leg.

NeverTrumpers were willing to hand the judiciary to Hildabeast?

Senate Republicans are racing these nominees through confirmation; last week, breaking a 100-year-old tradition, they eliminated the “blue slip” rule that allowed home-state senators to object to particularly problematic nominees. The rush to Trumpify the judiciary includes [...] nominees with outrageously conservative views and nominees significantly younger (and, therefore, likely to serve longer) than those of previous presidents.

More winning!

[Persevero]

We got rid of the blue slip thing? First I️ heard of it. Don’t want to enjoy the ramifications of that when we get our next lib president.

Exactly! NeverTrumpers just another branding of the Uniparty.

After seeing some of the totally baseless and patently politicized assertions of judicial power over national defense matters, matters constitutionally entrusted to the president with congress —� not the judiciary — —� I’m all for president Trump selecting some new and hopefully constitutionally- minded judges. And anyway it’s his job to nominate people to fill judicial vacancies.

[BAW]

I’m not seeing a problem here.

"As a result, by sometime next year, 1 in 8 cases filed in federal court will be heard by a judge picked by Trump. Many of these judges will likely still be serving in 2050" Long may they live.

It's not a "plan," Bozo.

It's a done deal, thanks to Dingy Harry.

>>President Trump will add twice as many lifetime members to the federal judiciary in the next 12 months (650) as Barack Obama named in eight years (325). American law will never be the same.

This is why the Globalists want to hand the Senate over to the Dems ASAP. Keep winning, President Trump!

Due to GOP obstruction, “the number of [judicial] vacancies . . . on the table when [Trump] was sworn in was unprecedented,”

Way to go, GOP obstruction! I don't see what WaPo is crying about; this whole article is great news.

By the end of next year we could have the Trump Court of the United States.

If Hillary had won she would have the same number of ‘picks’ and the little sh*ts at the Washington Post would be brimming with praise.

‘After years of an obstructionist White House which continued to nominate hacks instead of judges, the Senate is rolling through the smooth nomination process, even taking the unusual step of removing the ability of sore loser senators from blocking nominations without cause...’

The Garland-to-Gorsuch Supreme Court switch

The writer deserves to be beaten with a nail-studded baseball bat for this particular lie...

Judgeships are open and need filling. The president was elected by us. The president gets to nominate those judges. That is the way The Constitution was written.

The real problem is slow walking Mitch McConnell. He wants Trump to fail so as to preserve the present corrupt system of government. He is a creature of the Swamp!

[TBP]

Then break up some of the larger circuits, such as the Ninth, and fill those vacancies you just created.

[TBP]

Probably not all next year, but almost certainly during his tenure.
