Gosh. D’ya think maybe there was a huge backlog of qualified not-white-guys, who had 0 chance during the Trump and Dubya years? Or when McConnell was obstructing all the Obama nominees?

I know by the end of the Trump years, when he was still picking only white guys, he’d run out of capable/qualified options and was really scraping the bottom of the barrel. People who’d never even tried a case a lawyers, people who’d never been in federal court even to watch a co-worker try a case, people who’d never even assisted with discovery or writing pleadings or any other participation in any federal trials.
