Allies of Judge Thomas Hardiman told to prepare for rollout of his candidacy; unclear what other candidate’s advocates have been told
WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump has settled on a nominee for Supreme Court hours before a scheduled announcement, as some advocates prepared for the rollout of Judge Thomas Hardiman of Pennsylvania.

Leonard Leo, a Federalist Society executive vice president advising Trump on nominees, had this to say about the judge: “Tom Hardiman is an interesting mix of two worlds,” he said in January 2017, according to CNN. “On the one hand he is very much in the mold of Justice Scalia, well-schooled on the doctrines of originalism and textualism, and he is very experienced. And yet, at the same time, Judge Hardiman hails from a family of relatively modest means, from an industrial working class city in Western Pennsylvania.”
Hardiman’s wife/family are bigtime demonrats. This guy is going to be a another Souter!
No, the guy worked pro bono to illegals. Immigration is the #1 issue for the nation at this moment. The worst of the 4 finalists.
Doc Brown has not yet perfected a way to go back in time.
And, as long as they were legal immigrants he was doing pro bono work for, who cares?
Hardiman’s wife/family are bigtime demonrats.
Absolute deal killer NO!!
“If I were Trump, I’d be pissed over leaks.”
Maybe he told one person, “Hardiman”, and then waited to see if the word got out. A good way to find a leaker.
“unclear what other candidate’s advocates have been told”
False start. Five yard penalty. Replay the down.
Barrett is short on experience....way short...
Figures, the WSJ is now into tabloid reporting on their slippery slope to gain readers.
Gee, ya think?
That is who I am pulling for as well.
“Hardiman’s wife/family are bigtime demonrats.”
I don’t believe that the sins of the father are visited upon the son. Past actions/decisions count way more with me as they should you.
I think that Trump views him in that light. For those favoring Amy Barrett I think he is saving her for the Ruth B Ginsberg replacement. Barrett will use the intervening time to build up a judicial record on the Circuit court and dispel some possible future Demonrat objections.
I trust Trump to do what’s best and in the right order!
Ummm... don’t you think he’s used to it by now?
I earnestly hope Hardiman is NOT the nominee.
She has said she has dirt on anyone he picks and she is prepared to blast it from the roof tops.
“PITTSBURGH —
Two judges in eastern Pennsylvania have pleaded guilty to taking millions of dollars in kickbacks to send young people to two juvenile homes owned by the brother of Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen Zappala.”
This is Hardiman’s wife’s family, crooked up demonrat mobsters!
Based on exactly what ?...
“He stared at me”, it was a clear micro aggression fueld by excess testosterone.
Hoping this is a Dewey Defeats Truman headline.
