@DavidMDrucker hmm. Probably some wiggle room in that statement. Because it would provoke a real crisis. -
@brianros1 Agreed. But wouldn't be surprised if they confirm as few as possible. Hangover of nuke option & DC Circuit, etc -
@DavidMDrucker Sure. But my hunch is that they have to confirm some, maybe between 5-10 during this Congress to forestall divided government -
@DavidMDrucker essentially = no confirmations beyond the District Court for the future.
