Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
Jim Geraghty of National Review and Chad Benson of Radio America congratulate President Donald Trump for appointing more judges to regional circuit courts than any president has at this point in his term. They also criticize big businesses that are supporting Democrats in 2018 because of Trump’s trade and immigration policies. And they think the only major support for a Bill Kristol 2020 presidential campaign would come from the Kristol household.

I can’t believe that Kristol is serious about running. Maybe he is just trying to lure another challenger to the fray. Regardless, I think he ought to rethink whatever he is doing. The movement is already fractured. It will be hard enough trying to reunite the right – conservatives, that is.
A great, good, and good martinis.
Great: Trump has appointed the most appellate judges. Outstanding. The best part of his Presidency, by far, even better than taxes and regulations. A major shout-out to Mitch McConnell, and also Chuck Grassley.
Good: I am happy that the Koch Brothers have drawn the line on populism and tariffs. About time. The sound you hear is the Democratic wave in the House to put a check on Trump.
Good: Bill Kristol being willing to run in 2020. I would prefer Sasse, Flake, Romney, Kasich or Corker, but if no one steps up, Kristol is fine with me. I am making plans to go to New Hampshire in 2020 to help whoever takes on Trump.
