Obama had 55 in EIGHT years.
The Judiciary has been remade.
Excellent.
Get it going Lindsey.
More winning please.
Can they vote for her at 1201am Monday?

Remade on paper. If it isn’t remade in practice by rolling back egregious and outrageous unconstitutional edicts, it will be for naught. Start with tossing out Obergefell.
Dems boycotted the session? So they chose not to show up for work?
Makes them seem like they just don’t care. This isn’t a protest or some social group you belong to, it’s your paid job Dems, to be there and be doing your work.
If they were mature individuals they would have shown up and voted either for or against advancing the judge.
Boss move filling that Circuit Court seat.
I wouldn’t say remade. I would say restored to where it was before Obama. All the damage he did has been repaired. Now in Trump’s second term we can make real progress. Hopefully Trump gets to replace at least one of Breyer or the Wide Latina as well as replacing Justice Thomas with an Originalist, and hopefully he can flip a few more Circuit Courts. For example, if he could replace even two Democrat appointees on the 9th Circuit it would officially be flipped.
That's the thing about committee rules... you have to BE THERE to object to the violations. Deny a quorum by not sending at least one observer, and you're handing the Republicans an opportunity. And even our shakey leader -- Lindsay Graham -- recognized it and took it.
If the Democrats take back the Senate is it possible that Trump might never get another judge confirmed in his second term?
Good
