We have to do away with lifetime appointments. That has to be gone.

When Dems take full control of the government next year, we can begin the process of impeaching their judges. They're protecting Trump and not the Constitution. Certainly hope not. The precedent is terrible. The party that controls the senate gets to fire the judges appointed by the previous party to control the senate?!! Let's don't go there. Term limits might be a much better solution. On the impeaching judges argument, it does, on second thought, strike me that a few Trump/McConnell appointed judges were flagrantly incompetent (ABA said so). Might be impeachable. But I worry about a precedent like the above. Gets too close to the senate controlling the federal court system. Need more independence than that.
