Donald Trump confirmed 234 federal judges during his first term, cementing a Republican majority on the Supreme Court. While most were deemed "Very Qualified" by the ABA, notable deficiencies exist, with ten judges rated "Not Qualified." Recently, Trump nominated four candidates in Missouri, including members of the state's Attorney General's legal team and federal prosecutors. Optimizing these nominations raises concerns about potential judicial overreach, despite hopes that the ABA will maintain a thorough vetting process going forward.
However, the ink has barely dried on these picks, but I'm optimistic that this round won't be as bad as what we've seen in the past.
A second term gives Trump a second bite at the nominating apple, recently recommending four names for gavel banging in Missouri.
