Donald Trump is rapidly filling the courts with conservative judges who may drive the country dramatically to the Right.

“Trump’s speed in nominating judges has been perhaps the most successful aspect of his presidency,” said Carl Tobias, a law professor at the University of Richmond who specializes in judicial nominations. “Trump has easily surpassed Obama, Bush and Clinton at this point in the first year of their presidencies in terms of the sheer number nominated.” 

He has. Ten months in, Trump has nominated 17 circuit court judges and 39 district court judges. That’s far more than former President Barack Obama’s seven circuit court nominees and four district court nominees by this point in his first year of office. Former President George W. Bush had nominated 11 circuit judges and 31 district judges by this point. 

He’s also got more court seats to fill. He inherited a whopping 108 court vacancies when he became president ― double the number of vacancies Obama inherited when he took office. That’s largely due to Republicans’ years-long strategy of denying votes to Obama’s court picks to keep those seats empty for a future GOP president to fill. It worked. 

If Trump’s current judicial nominees are a preview of the kinds of judges he plans to nominate in the coming years, prepare for a significantly more socially conservative group of people shaping the nation’s laws.

LGBTQ rights, employee protections, Roe Vs Wade, could all be in jeopardy once Trump fills the courts with judges who are determined to help Make America Great Again.

Their version of that is giving white males back all of the power, and to put everybody else back in their places. You know, where they belong.

Anybody who voted for Donald Trump because they thought he was a Republican who would not push conservative social values onto the people, should be taken out back an given a sound beating.
