Movement is good. She's a moron and a Trump appointee. I was hoping she would recuse herself.

I'm really hoping the relentless public scrutiny will keep her from behaving like the Trump sycophant she is, but somehow I doubt it.

If she remains the judge and Trump is found not guilty, no one (non-Republican) is going to have faith in the verdict because she's a Trump supporter. She's not impartial.
