Editor,

After six years of Trump on the national stage filled with spite and heartlessness, the Republican members of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee did Trump “proud” in their badgering of Judge Jackson. The public hardly heard from her as senators mostly used their time to make partisan speeches, or “sound bites” for Fox News. Considering that Jackson has extraordinary qualifications; the American Bar Association rated her as “well qualified” — its highest rating; and she exhibited remarkable judicial temperament during the hearings, she should be confirmed.

Mr. Stone, isn’t this “badgering” still much better than the circus sideshow initiated by Dems during Kavanaugh’s confirmation? If Dems are going to set the bar at the lowest level, anything else is an improvement – even your so-called badgering, partisan speeches, or “sound bites.” Unfortunately, Jackson’s judicial temperament during her judgeship is debatably the opposite of remarkable, especially when it comes to her leniency towards child sex traffickers.
