CNBC: "Congress has handed Trump a historic presidential victory"
Trump will get to fill the most federal judiciary vacancies in 40 years
President Donald Trump should give special thanks to two U.S. Senators this Thanksgiving weekend. One is still serving in the Senate, the other recently retired. One is a Republican. The other a Democrat. And what should President Trump be thanking them for?

Trump appointees. These judges could roll back years of
hard-fought victories.
