It’s not like any candidate was actually good but they did pick the worst one.

The immunity appeal that I’m referring to in #1 has 3 judges, none of which were appointed by Trump. (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/appeals-court-weighs-trumps-immunity-claim-election-interference-case-rcna132281)

The case I’m referring to in #2 has a judge that was not appointed by Trump. (Tanya Chutkan)

Case #1 might eventually be considered by the Supreme Court though, and your criticism would apply there.

Also, Trump's trial over mishandling classified documents is overseen by Judge Cannon, who Trump appointed, which is a sham. Cannon should have recused herself.
