Mike Lee does not want to be on the Supreme Court.

Sen. Mike Lee urges Trump to quit, as Utah Republicans abandon their party's nominee

“But Lee, who is cruising to re-election, has been the leading Trump critic in the red state where the nominee's weakness is inspiring two third-party candidates to make a run at its electoral votes. Last month, Trump put Lee on a list of possible Supreme Court nominees; Lee rebuffed him, saying he preferred to stay in the Senate.”

saying he preferred to stay in the Senate.


But he also said, “I wouldn’t say no.”

I totally disagree with scavenging the Republicans in the Senate for other jobs. It puts the seat at risk and the person selected is rarely the best for the job (think Sessions).

I don’t know much about Lee but I can’t help but think that many on Trump’s are better qualified and are more reliably conservative than Lee.
