Donald Trump said on Friday he plans to announce his nominee for a forthcoming vacancy on the supreme court on 9 July a lightning-quick move to replace the retiring swing vote Justice Anthony Kennedy, 81.
Speaking aboard Air Force One en route to his private golf club in New Jersey on Friday afternoon, the president announced that he has five finalists, including two women, out of the shortlist of 25 names that had been previously circulated.
Speaking to reporters on the plane from Washington DC, Trump said he may interview one or two contenders for the nomination this weekend in New Jersey.
Ive got it narrowed to about five, he said.
Of Roe v Wade, the landmark 1973 decision that legalized abortion in the US, he said: Im not going to ask them that question.

It’s a fake leak claimed by Bloomberg in favor of the five most left/liberal candidates. *It’s an effort by Bloomberg and The Guardian to narrow all discussion to those five.*
They’re all a black hole on the Second Amendment. Hardiman has decided in favor of firearms for “self-defense” but also in favor of police unions, immunities, etc. Some of the five have shown a tendency to favor big corporations. Other than that, there’s the usual limit of choices to northeastern Catholics, etc, and stealth on the more important issues.
Call for Trump to nominate Don Willett, or we may see some very unpleasant surprises from rulings in the near future.
And we’ve had it with affirmative action appointments to the Supreme Court. The President will smother his Administration’s momentum by picking one of the five allowed by Bloomberg for discussion.
I think he really believed Hillary was a lock.
So they weren’t worried.
Maybe if Garland had been confirmed, the anti-Hillary vote would have been even greater, especially if some 5-4 votes started going to the left.
It just gets better and better every week, and to top it off I think he’s working behind the scenes to bring an end to the Democrap party, not the historic one per se but the extreme radical elements that have taken it over and are causing so much trouble.
I saw something this morning that utterly blew me away: Liberals have actually formed a group called “Walkaway” which is a group of people who have had enough of the radical elements of the Democratic party and are walking away from it. I couldn’t believe it, and it seems to be picking up steam. Look at this, incredible.........

Type in #walkaway in search on twitter. It’s everywhere!
I know this is incredible, there are a hell of a lot of people that were in hiding about being Trump supporters and this is a brilliant idea to get them to come out and leave the democrap party. Democraps are utterly fcked, and the beauty of it is the more insane they act like yesterday with their big protest in support of illegals the more people get disgusted with them and leave.
Karl Rove likes Kavanaugh, who was appointed judge by GWBush. If Tokyo Rove likes Kavanaugh, he would be just another RINO Bush judge. Hope POTUS doesn’t pick him!!!!
Dems will make hay about poor TX women having to take a bus to Albuquerque to get their abortions.
