Republican-appointed judges have frequently ruled against Donald Trump’s administration and personal legal interests, often emphasizing the rule of law over political affiliation. A 2025 analysis found that Trump lost approximately 72% of rulings issued by Republican-appointed judges in federal district courts.

I think the term that explains this is Rino's and unlike the Dems they don't follow party lines no mater what. They are a prolific and self serving species that are much like the cockroach, unfortunately they also infest the House and Senate.

Your history lesson fails to show gas over $4.00/gal now. How many weeks until over $5 or who knows?

Iran is never going to be totally eliminated, just different more radical pissed off people leading it and they still have 1/3 of their missiles and drones and are making more. Look up what this bombing is costing US taxpayers per day. About a $ Billion per day. No plan in place, just schmoozed into helping Benny Yahoo. This is much worse than Fake Fox Noise is spewing.

You are forgetting Donald did the current economic impact all by his own stupid moves. Tariff tax Americans (the foreign importers do not pay the Tariffs) and he decided to bomb Iran again. Inflation is on the way up.

COVID was not caused by Trump or Biden, but Trump totally F'd up our response. Biden did not invade Ukraine which caused the last oil price jump.

Let's agree to see where gas prices and inflation go in 30 days. I hope they both go down.

I'm glad to see some checks in the balance. If it gets too bad for him, Trump will write an executive order to just eliminate the court system
