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. That was just the beginning. His 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.

Under this administration, the number of circuit courts with Democrat-appointed majorities has fallen from nine to seven. Last month, President Trump flipped the Third Circuit to a Republican-appointed majority. He brought the Eleventh Circuit to an even split. The infamously liberal Ninth Circuit had 18 Democrat-appointed judges, seven Republican-appointed judges, and four vacant seats at the beginning of President Trump’s term. Today, it has 16 Democrat-appointed judges and the Senate will soon confirm another two of President Trump’s nominees. Once the remaining vacancies are filled, the largest circuit court in America will have an unprecedented 13 Republican-appointed judges.
