RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel: Donald Trump Has Secured The Future Of Our American Courts

"Two years ago, now-Justice Neil Gorsuch said at his Senate confirmation hearing, "If judges were just secret legislatures declaring not what the law is butwhat they would like it to be, the very idea of a government by the people and for the people would be at risk." Today, we celebrate the two-year anniversary of Justice Gorsuch’s confirmation and honor the scores of jurists appointed by President Trump who serve faithfully to uphold the Constitution and the rule of law.

…
 
President Trump kept his promise to the American people by choosing two strong jurists for the nation’s highest court: Justices Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. And that was just the beginning. The President’s first term in office has been marked by a historic reshaping of the federal judiciary at an incredible pace: he has delivered 93 federal judges so far, including two Supreme Court justices, 37 circuit court judges – a record-breaking 30 of which were confirmed during his first two years – and 54 district court judges.

Looking ahead to 2020, Republican victories will be more important than ever for the future of our courts. Democrats see state Supreme Court races as good targets to reclaim ground and shift the balance of power in states like Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin.
…
 
It is more important than ever for voters to maintain this momentum in the years ahead. Just look at the alarming, radical proposals Democrat presidential candidates embrace today. Look at Democrats’ support for court-packing, or adding judges to the Supreme Court. Look at their calls to abolish the Electoral College. Look at their attempts to destroy each of our longstanding institutions every time they lose an election."
