An acquaintance of mine is a T----p appointed federal judge [View all]

I’ve known him since he was in law school and have had many conversations with him. I would have no problem if he had to rule on one of these cases.

I cannot discuss the method of his selection, but suffice it to say that he is a most decent, fair, thoughtful human being. I’m just saying this, as a matter of experience, meaning: my own. I’m not speaking for any individual or other jurist.
