The tragedy, of course, is that almost any Trump appointee is almost certain to be worse.

I’m sure you will be quite wrong about Judge Moore.

Doubly tragic because it’s the 9th – a famously progressive district. Damn … Just Damn. Hurry up, Mueller, please!

Awww, man. Conservatives fondest wish coming true. Damn.

Reading some of the comments on this board, I must remind folks that Judge Kozinski was a Reagan appointee (appointed in 1985), and was easily one of the most conservative justices on the 9th Circuit. He was much like Scalia - a brilliant writer, but conservative to his core. His vacancy under a Trump administration will do nothing to change the balance of the Circuit immediately; though, it gives the Rs a chance at a much younger version of the same judge. Overall, they will see it as a win.
