It will take decades to extricate or isolate them.
I know this seems like it should be impossible, but both of these statements are true: Trump's judicial nominees all refuse to denounce the January 6 insurrection or say that he lost the 2020 election, and ALSO, some Senate Dems keep voting to confirm those nominees to life-tenured judgeships
