WASHINGTON — President Trump said Friday two women are on his short list as the next Supreme Court nominee and he’ll announce his decision July 9.

On his way to Bedminster, NJ, the president told reporters aboard Air Force One that he plans to interview one or two candidates this weekend.

“I’ve got it narrowed to about five,” Trump said, including two women.

Utah Sen. Mike Lee was on the list.

“He said he’d like the job, usually they don’t say that,” Trump said.

I think Diane Sykes is on that list. Mark Levin vetted her - very solid conservative.

That is EXACTLY where we are right now. If Trump did NOT own golf courses, where would we be??

The only place he has privacy is in his OWN CLUB!!

Kagan?

Sorry, that’s not a lady/woman/girl.....

You are talking about the “woman” who instigated the movement as Dean of Harvard Law for Transgenders to use any bathroom they want....

NOT female.....

I don’t care as long as they are strict Constitutionalists.

She’s 60 years old. I’d rather see an early 40s judge.

Yeah, sorry, you’re right!

Bit of false advertising on “its” part...

My observation has been that women put in positions of extreme public exposure, threats, and vilification don't last there. They are more likely to lose heart, quit, or go native (i.e., socialist) like Sandra Day O'Connor. Sarah Palin was great, but didn't do well under the constant barrage of demonic hatred. She was too normal. I've read that the pressure was too much for Anne Gorsuch, and had something to do with busting up her marriage.

There are a few Joan of Arcs who can take it--although it was very difficult for her. But most women are too normal. It's not really men's calling to let the ladies take the arrows. And there will be arrows. And bombs.

No, they didn’t and they are much more hostile now.

Thought about that, but the surety is now, while The Donald is yet alive. One never knows . . . Assume nothing.

I was wondering which two, also. I saw five or six included in the list of 25.

The GOP has not have very good luck with female SCOTUS justices. Just saying.

I would rather the evaluation criteria to be original construction and defense of the People’s rights.

I didn’t know her age, and yes, a younger Justice would be better. However, we could still get over 20 years out of her.

“Just because she isn’t an attorney means nothing”

Being an attorney isn’t even a requirement, anyhow. That opens a lot of doors. I think Tom Fitton would kick ass.
