Elections Have Consequences

As a result of the STILL CONTESTED (by Democrats) 2016 Presidential Election, Donald Trump was elected President of the United States or POTUS.

A consequence of being President is to be able to nominate Supreme Court Justices should vacancies arise and during the Trump Administration, two conservative Justices have been confirmed by the Republican Senate:

• Neil Gorsuch 2017
• Bret Kavanaugh 2018

And, a third justice was needed as a result of the death of RBG and so there is a pending vote in the Senate for Amy Coney Barrett (photo right).

If confirmed, and confirmation will happen, the Conservative Supreme Court Justices will have a 6-3 majority for a good 2-3 decades into the future.

THIS PISSES OFF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY...  obviously...

There are 792 Judges serving in the 3 main tiers of the US Court System and President Trump has appointed 194 of those judges of 24% in his first term as compared to 312 or 39% appointed by Obama during his first and second terms.

However, going back to Ronald Reagan to see how many appointed judges are still serving, we see the following results:

Democrats        400

Republicans     392

So, the Judicial System is just about equal in terms of liberal/conservative except the Supreme Court is going to be on a conservative direction for a long time...

Even if the Democrats win in 2020, the Judicial System will remain slanted towards the CONSERVATIVES...
