'A big if': Trump said to face immediate uphill battle over judicial nominations

0

President-elect Donald Trump will face an uphill battle should he attempt to push ultra-ideological judges to the bench as he did in his first term, according to a new report.

A Washington Post analysis revealed Monday that, despite a Senate majority, the math is working against Trump.

"If the Senate confirms all of Biden’s remaining nominees — a big if — Trump will have 36 judicial vacancies to fill when he takes office," the Post reported.

That's a stark contrast from the 108 vacancies Trump had at the start of his first term, the Post reported.
