It was a one in four chance. Trump appointed 174 of the 670 District judges in his one term. The odds are even better in Appeals court where he appointed 54 out of 179 judges.
Incredible. How many would you have expected him to appoint? Sounds like a lot but don’t have any context.
It’s a lot of judges in two specific areas, the areas that he’s most likely to face charges. Overall it’s higher than average, but still less than the record holder, Ronald Reagan.

You know what happens to regular people when they’re convicted of crimes and sentenced to prison? They go straight to fucking prison, and appeal from there.
"I'm shocked they want to silence the voice of MAGA," Bannon told ABC News in regards to Tuesday's news.
Is the MAGA position that criminals should not go to jail now?
No.
The MAGA position is that they should not go to jail.
Jail is for blacks, trans, and the woke. Their enemies.
The irony of saying you’re being silenced while talking on a national tv channel.
Is this not the party of law and order?
Only for people who don't look exactly like them
