President-elect Donald Trump said he had narrowed his choices for a potential Supreme Court nominee to “three or four” candidates and that a decision would be coming “pretty soon,” Politico reports.
Said Trump: “They are terrific people, highly respected, brilliant people and we’ll be announcing that pretty soon too.”

Frankly I’d rather he wait until January. The current president has a pick already. We’re better off just ignoring the issue for a month and a half.

Why give the media and Democrats (redundant) so much time to dig up dirt and come up with a battle plan? Why not announce the pick one week (or days) before confirmation hearings? As far as I know there is nothing that says you have to give any certain amount of time between nomination and confirmation hearings.
Republicans are in charge now. Ram the selection through in a matter of days!

Merrick Garland will withdraw soon.
No one knows who Trump will name to the High Court.
Its been overlooked by MSM outlets since the election.

I wonder who the choices are?
I hope he chooses Diane Sykes, a strong, smart conservative from a key state. I’m also intrigued by Robert Young of the Michigan Supreme Court. Young’s stated philosophy is that we should have Rule of Law, not Rule of Judges.

I agree. The the less time they have to Bork/Thomas the candidate the better.

His picks have been pretty good so far but not perfect.

Young, Cruz, Gowdy.
Young for the most recent opening, Cruz for the next, and Gowdy for Chief Justice if Roberts leaves the bench.
A pipe dream, I know, but at this time, why not go big?

Only one SCOTUS woman was appointed by a Republican and she was an improvement over her predecessor.

You’d think Cruz would sell us out like what Roberts did on obamacare? He’s a scummy guy but not as effing scumbaggish like Roberts.
