President Trump picks conservative Amy Coney Barrett for Supreme Court
Trump hailed Barrett as โa woman of remarkable intellect and character,โ saying he had studied her record closely before making the pick. Trump, meanwhile, is hoping the nomination will galvanize his supporters as he looks to fend off Democrat Joe Biden. โWe donโt have to do it before, but I think this will be done before the election," Trump told reporters Saturday. โI think this will end up in the Supreme Court,โ Trump said Wednesday of the election. Meanwhile, outside conservative groups are planning to spend more than $25 million to support Trump and his nominee.
