Presidents can reshape the federal judiciary with their appointments and seek to appoint judges they believe share their ideological leanings. Republicans typically strive to pick conservatives while Democrats generally aim to appoint liberals, all subject to Senate confirmation. Although there are no guarantees a judge will rule the way a president might like, the number of Republican and Democratic appointees is generally an indicator of an appeals court’s conservative-liberal balance. With the Republican-led Senate rapidly considering and confirming many of his judicial nominees, Trump already has appointed 26 appeals court judges. That is more than any other president in the first two years of a presidency, according to Russell Wheeler, a scholar at the Brookings Institution think tank, although he points out that there are more appellate judges now than in the past. Trump’s Democratic predecessor, Barack Obama, appointed 55 in eight years as president. Only four of the 13 federal appeals courts currently have more Republican-appointed judges than Democratic selections.

The same fools/suckers who donated to Andy McCabe's and Stormy Daniel's GoFundMe account, have put $140,000 into the "Whistleblower's" GoFundMe. (As of Sunday)

Nearly all of us have got to sell our souls to eat.... its still no excuse to worship some silver spooned little narcissist, like he was some kind of god.

Honest question.. what do you think the president actually does?
