Eat shit, Doug. We're not an autocracy or a dictatorship. You should know that since you've (unfortunately) done this fucking job before.

On Wednesday, Ford dismissed the idea of judicial independence and denounced judges who he sees as not tough enough on crime.

"You know something, that's a joke as far as I'm concerned," he said. "There's no judge appointed anywhere in this country, anywhere in the United States, anywhere in the world, that's not a political appointment. Simple as that. You think these judges just come out of the blue?

Then why do you sound so surprised/angry that these judges, who were appointed by another party, don't just vibe with everything you do? Obviously, you just want to be able to move around/fire these judges so they're not inconvenient for you. That's despotism.
