President Trump has interviewed multiple candidates to replace Justice Kennedy on the Supreme Court. Fox News reports:
President Trump has completed the interview process for Supreme Court candidates after speaking with six judges, a source with knowledge of the selection process told Fox News – with three finalists in particular leading the field.
The president and his vetting team have moved quickly ahead of an expected announcement on Monday.
While liberal advocacy groups and others are gearing up for a major confirmation fight, Trump is charging ahead with an imminent decision to fill the seat of retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy, and potentially move the court more solidly to the right.
Fox News is told that Trump has interviewed six candidates: Appeals court judges Brett Kavanaugh, Raymond Kethledge, Amy Coney Barrett, Amul Thapar, Joan Larsen and Thomas Hardiman. The interviews comprised seven conversations – Trump talked to one candidate twice.
Any of these candidates would make any conservative senator happy.
Very leery about Kavanaugh considering he was Justice Kennedy’s law clerk and every Supreme Justice wants to leave a legacy. I hope there was no deal making considering Kennedy and Trump talked prior to his retirement announcement. I wonder and we will see! If he picks Kavanaugh, I will know there was a deal made!
AMERICA!! MR. TRUMP, With out question ….. put Amy Coney Barrett on this position, THAT WILL REALLY GET THE DEMOCRATS ON THEIR TOES, POSSIBLY EVEN ON THEIR KNEES.
From what I see …. she is as unlikable as you are ….such should make a darn good selection. God is shining his light on the right path ….. for you to fallow, and the path is wide open. God Bless
