Wonder what percentage of Appeals Court judges are pulled from the District courts...
If it is significant, why allow Democrats to determine the field of candidates???

7 of the current vacancies as well as one of the known near-term future vacancies are vacant because the prior incumbent has been elevated. So yes, the District Courts in some measure serve as “farm teams” for nominees to the Courts of Appeals. If we ACTUALLY fill all the vacancies with Trump nominees, the District Courts will be an even RICHER source of Court of Appeals judges.
Get off your dead ass, Lindsay!
