| White House: Supreme Court choice could be announced Monday | |
| 2017-01-30 | |
| A White House official says President Donald Trump could announce his pick for the Supreme Court as early as Monday. Trump originally said the announcement would come on Thursday, but the official says the timeframe could be sped up. Three federal appeals court judges are said to have emerged as leading candidates: Neil Gorsuch, Thomas Hardiman and William Pryor. The official says the president has also been considering Diane Sykes, one of his early favorites for the high court seat. Word of a possible earlier announcement came as the White House dealt with fallout from Trump's ban on refugees. As a candidate, Trump often used surprise announcements to shift attention away from negative coverage.

| #3 If they can't seethe at two issues at once they aren't serious. I for one would like to see how many issues they can seethe against at one time and which secondary issues get dropped for lack of proper seething energy. |

| #1 Trump originally said the announcement would come on Thursday, but the official says the timeframe could be sped up. Mickey Kaus expanded on this line of MSM attack by Trump - basically carpet bomb the bastards and overload them on points in which to feign their outrage to the point they're useless. Trump is playing these assholes like fiddles and they're too fucking stupid or arrogant to figure it out. |
