Trump To Announce Supreme Court Pick
Washington, DC, USA | 26 September 2020

U.S. President Donald Trump will announce his nominee to replace Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died Friday at the age of 87. Trump says he's confident his choice will be confirmed, but some disagreement is forming on whether the pick should focus on cementing the conservative majority on the court, or assist in Trump's reelections efforts.

Trump and his aides appear to have set their sights on nominating Judge Amy Coney Barrett of Indiana, who was at the White House twice this week, including for a Monday meeting with Trump. The staunch conservative’s 2017 confirmation on a party-line vote included allegations that Democrats were attacking her Catholic faith.
