For Donald Trump, this is an unforgivable act of disloyalty. So in his second term, he demands that appointees bend a knee, kiss the ring, and demonstrate blind loyalty. President Trump is now putting forward nominees who have shown they're willing to ignore the rule of law so long as they follow his agenda. That is in direct conflict with what we require of federal judges throughout the history of this country. We should have confidence that jurists will be neutral arbiters who rule without fear or favor. (05:59–06:07)
