I guess Trump in control of 43% of the populace doesn't threaten judges.

Maybe they are not transactional by nature even though some were appointed by Trump. Let's hope it holds. One thing for sure the Republican politicians are pawns in this Trump denial of election results. I just hope nothing makes it to the Supreme Court. I trust them less.

But it looks like they're more loyal to the constitution than to the president. Maybe it has something to do with the oath they recite when they're sworn in.
