He’s waiting on Senate approval for nominees already in progress. Ask them to hurry up.

DC jail is getting backed up with people waiting to go to trial. They are out of space and prisoners are sleeping on one another.

He can’t find any TV personalities to fill the positions. Neither Judge Judy nor Judge Joe Brown are available.

That doesn’t mean he can’t continue nominating people. They won’t all be stalled because some have been confirmed already.


This year, Democrats have refused to confirm a single Trump civilian nominee by voice vote or unanimous consent. It’s completely unprecedented. For a nominee coming out of private practice it’s problematic to just be in limbo with no end in sight.


Perhaps Trump should try nominating some capable, honest, accomplished attorneys to judgeships rather than inept, corrupt stooges with no real experience or ability.


This! You want them confirmed? Just nominate someone sane, qualified, and non-partisan.

You know why, OP.

He doesn’t actually care about improving crime.

What’s the best way to create a “hell hole” that justifies taking over the city to his supporters? Crime was actually down when he brought in the National Guard and then decided that some of them should be armed. Now it will be a backlog of cases. Most people will attribute blame to the DC local government— instead of to Trump who’s responsible for the backlog.

Because he doesn't care about crime or due process.

not having judges stalls justice, particularly when one is planning on committing more crimes in that jurisdiction.

25% of the judge positions are empty in DC to handle local crime and civil matters. Trump has not nominated anyone for these positions?

The current judges are hearing cases until 1 or 2am, but there is still a massive backlog.

WTF is going on? Why isn’t Trump filling the court?
