President Donald Trump's "reshaping" of the federal court system is a "revolution" that will have positive ramifications for decades to come, Newt Gingrich wrote in a column for Fox News.

Gingrich touts the revamped pace of Trump's nominees getting confirmed to the federal bench — 13 so far.

And, like the appointment of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court earlier this year, Trump's lesser-known federal appointments are no less important, given their originalist interpretations of the Constitution.

"President Trump has already taken monumental steps to restore the integrity of the federal bench by appointing originalist judicial nominees who will apply the law as it is written, rather than in the way current political forces desire," Gingrich writes.

"The importance of this dramatic reshaping of the entire federal court system cannot be overstated. While it is easy to focus on the U.S. Supreme Court, lower and appellate court judges will make decisions that impact ordinary Americans on a daily basis for decades to come," Gingrich writes.

"This Trump transformation in the judiciary could establish the most pro-American, pro-individual rights federal bench in modern American history," Gingrich wrote.
