C-11-1 Trump Set To Name Supreme Court Pick on Tuesday
President Trump stated today on Twitter that he will announce his nomination for Supreme Court Justice on Tuesday at 8pm ET. Once the nomination is announced, the Senate will debate and vote on the nomination. Trump said to Fox News on Thursday, "I have made my decision pretty much in my mind, yes. That's subject to change at the last moment, but I think this will be a great choice." Former President Obama nominated Judge Merrick Garland, but Senate Republicans refused to hold a confirmation vote on the pivotal seat so close to a presidential election. Trump was said to have shortened his list to two federal appeals court judges, Neil Gorsuch of the Tenth Circuit and Thomas Hardiman of the Third Circuit.
