llowing is the most likely reason that his appointments might be blocked? A.a president is more likely to appoint judges who would agree with him ideologically B.a Democratic president is more likely to appoint people who are unqualified C.Republicans have an interest in slowing down the court system, and fewer judges would mean that each existing judge would have to do more work D.none of the above reasons explain why judicial appointments might be blocked
