Democrat Obstruction Leads to More Court Vacancies Than When Trump Took Office

Fred Lucas / @FredLucasWH / March 07, 2018 / comments

 

President Donald Trump had a successful year in seating appeals court judges, but it is lower-level federal courts that have blocked much of his policy agenda, including withholding funds from sanctuary cities and restricting travel from some nations.

    ”Despite Senate Democrats’ use of petty political tactics to delay his nominees, the president will continue nominating outstanding candidates,” @HoganGidley45 says.

These federal district courts also continue to have the most vacancies.

Trump came into office in January 2017 with 108 vacancies on the federal bench. Despite rapidly moving to fill the seats, he now has 178 current and known future vacancies, according to the Judicial Crisis Network.
