Obama also tilted the partisan makeup of circuit courts. Nine of the country’s 13 appeals courts now have majority Democratic appointees, compared with just one when he took office in 2009.


We may have been fucked at the top court but there is a bit of a firewall before anything would reach there and the Circuits are where most cases end (there is no way that the SCOTUS can hear thousands and thousands of cases each term).
