President Trump said Wednesday he will appoint more than 180 judges by the end of the year, celebrating the historic milestone at a White House event attended by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and fellow Republicans recognized for remaking the federal bench.
He’s currently confirmed more than 157 judicial nominees and has dozens currently awaiting confirmation for district and circuit court vacancies, saying his nominees “will uphold our Constitution as written.”
Mr. Trump said the number of judicial confirmations is “a big moment” in the nation’s history, mostly crediting Mr. McConnell for processes federal judges at an unprecedented speed to fill out the federal judiciary.
“Generations from now, Americans will know Mitch McConnell helped save the Constitutional rule of law in America,” Mr. Trump said.

Except for that one time... when he didn't, because it was Obama's pick. He didn't follow the Constitution then, he just made up his own rules and ran with it.
Consistency. That's all I'm asking for. Doesn't matter what team your on.

We're supposed to believe that.

I don't care if you believe it or not.
I do care if there is consistency. We need to abandon this partisan hackery. We demonize the other team, but give ours a pass when they act in the same way. It's shameful.
We need to be loyal to liberty and freedom, and America. Not a political party. It's absurd.
Country over party . Seems to have been forgotten
