List of new judges appointed in 2017-2019

Usually, I don't site Wikipedia as a source, because of the bias of the contributor (often liberal), but in this case, for a list of PresidentTrump era appointees to the courts, it's the best source. The Supreme Court gets the most attention (Gorsuch and Kavanaugh), but he's also flipping the lower courts, and they are young, and on the side of the Constitution. Yea! Look it over.

Thank you, Harry Reid

"As of November 3rd, 13 Trump nominees to the courts have been confirmed this year. The big name is Supreme Court Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch, but we also have eight new federal appeals court judges, and four new U.S. district court judges. President Trump has now already surpassed the last four presidents' records for first-year judifical confirmations. And he's even tied President Ronald Reagan number of appeals court confirmations in year one."

Harry Reid killed the filibuster so Obama could railroad his appointees through without Republican objection. Recently Democrats have been trying to use the blue slip tradition to replace it, but Sen. Chuck Grassley (IA) has stopped that.  So the nation has been fixated on "inappropriate' behavior, Trump has been scoring major victories that will last far past his time in office.
