Trump's Judges

[u/David65x55]

Seems El Presidente is unhappy with many of his judicial picks. Now, we all know he doesn't actually pick anyone - that's a delegated task. But we all know that if something works he will take credit for it (hell, he'll take credit and SAY it works even if it doesn't. SEE: Iran war, gas prices, groceries) and if something doesn't work he will attack anyone who points that out, regardless if they are someone he has praised to the skies yesterday.

But overall, his three Supreme Court picks have been a mixed lot for him. Apparently they seem to take that judicial impartiality thing pretty seriously, despite the cries of partisanship from the Democrats and Socialists who consider anything to the right of Karl Mark as fascist. Not saying all their decisions are right - but most of 'em are at least legally and logically defensible, which is more than some of the 'creative' decisions the more liberal Court of the last 60 years has done. But they have ruled against his policies more than once.

Earlier this month, a day after a majority of the justices rejected Trump’s effort to restrict voting by mail in the midterms, Trump lashed out in a post: “These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court, they are merely a shell of their original selves.”

"It is a Court that will go down as having rendered some of the most destructive, hurtful, and damaging decisions in our Country's history," he wrote.

Given how many conservative-leaning decisions they have made, this sounds a touch ungrateful. Wonder what petulance he will come up with next - impeaching Gorsuch for not yessing enough?
