No, it’s because the DoJ is intentionally trying to take a neutral position in what they know is a very delicate issue.
Honestly it would be a tad concerning if they hadn’t used Trump appointees for this case. It’s not as if people appointed under Trump are beholden to him or even think like him. Look at how many Trump appointed federal judges shot down his election fraud cases.
Yeah, even most of the judges he appointed, who he no doubt hoped would be in his pocket forever, seem to recognize that supporting Trump, the way he’d like to be supported, in an actual legal proceeding, would be weapons-grade stupid for them. Trump has an outside chance at another 4 years, maybe, whereas these judges are on the bench for life in most cases, and most of them get that they’ll have to be able to operate in future administrations rather than burn their careers for this dumbdumb the way he gets his lawyers to do.
