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!

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 Im all for president Trump selecting some new and hopefully constitutionally- minded judges. And anyway its his job to nominate people to fill judicial vacancies.

"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.

>>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.

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.

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!

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