Just last week, though, Durbin voted to confirm two of Trump’s nominees, David Clay Fowlkes and Aaron Peterson, to serve as life-tenured federal judges. And he’s not the only one: During Trump’s second term, 19 Democrats have voted to confirm at least one of Trump’s nominees. New Hampshire Senators Maggie Hassan and Jeanne Shaheen have voted to confirm six and seven nominees, respectively, and Rhode Island senator Sheldon Whitehouse, who sits on the Judiciary Committee, has voted for five. Among Senate Democrats, Durbin and Virginia Senator Tim Kaine are tied for the lead in this ignominious category with eight yes votes apiece.
Because they’re taking campaign finance money from the same sources as the GOP.
This is the answer.
Their “controlled opposition” setting is permanently ON.
“controlled
opposition”Ftfy. An opposition party actually has to oppose .
Performative opposition party. Still need that donor money. And issues and quotes for Mothership campaigns.
They don’t work for us. Simple as.
Vichy Democrats
It like they are working as a team. But that’d be crazy, we’d need some sort of massive file database containing troves of evidence on how these people will cover work with each other to keep themselves wealthy and powerful, regardless of outwards political views.
Oh wait… We have those.
The same reason Schumer fast tracked several of trumps picks his first term, because its one big party
I’ll give you three gue$$e$.
I know! I know! Because Schumer’s a worthless controlled-opposition piece of shit!
Read Marx and Lenin, lol
If there are not enough judges, do you think the government will stop arresting people? No, the judicial system will just grind to a halt which will make it even easier for Trump to break the law.
I don’t see how appointing judges who’ll rule that Trump didn’t break the law helps anything.
He’s also, what, 0 for 100 on nominating qualified candidates that faithfully execute their duties?
They do other things besides just rule on Trump. There are a lot of crimes and lawsuits that need judges. Without that the whole justice system collapses.
Besides that, quite a few of these judged have decided against Trump. Just last Wednesday a Trump appointed judge blocked an attempt from Trump to get Michigan’s voter rolls. Once they have their sweet lifetime appointments, a Trump has nothing to offer them.
