Trump says his Supreme Court nominee will be a woman that he names next week

CNN  

CNN — President Donald Trump said Saturday evening that he will choose a candidate to fill the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Supreme Court seat next week and his candidate will be a woman. On Friday night the Senate Majority Leader said in a statement just hours after Ginsburg passed away that, “President Trump’s nominee will receive a vote on the floor of the United States Senate.” “I think the choice will be next week, I do,” Trump later added. The White House wants to announce Trump’s nominee to fill Ginsburg’s vacant seat before the first presidential debate less than two weeks away, a Trump adviser close to the process told CNN earlier Saturday. White House communications director Alyssa Farah told Fox News on Saturday that the administration will move in “Trump time” on a Supreme Court nominee.
