How Trump Changed the Courts in 2017
22nd December 2017
While the crowning achievement of the year was clearly the confirmation of Justice Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court, it is worth celebrating the fact that the Senate confirmed 12 Circuit Court judges this year — the largest number of appellate judges confirmed during the first year of any president in history (beating out John Kennedy and Richard Nixon by one).
…
Moreover, while Trump has now set the record for circuit court confirmations during a president’s first year in office, with only 19 total judges confirmed during his first year, he lags far behind other presidents — including George W. Bush (28), Bill Clinton (28, including Ruth Bader Ginsburg), Ronald Reagan (41, including Sandra Day O’Connor), Jimmy Carter (31), and Richard Nixon (25) — in terms of the total number of judges confirmed.
But of course you have to remember that Trump has accomplished ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in his first year in office.
