United States, Trump: “The vote will end in the Supreme Court, 9 judges are needed”

NEW YORK – “I think the elections will end in the Supreme Court: it is important that there are nine judges. There is enough time before the vote for the judge to confirm,” said the president of the United States Donald Trump. The head of the White House has already announced that he will indicate the name of the successor Saturday afternoon, emphasizing that will be a woman.

US Supreme Court, thousands to pay tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg

The appointment of the seat left empty after the disappearance of the judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died last Friday at the age of 87, is the decisive move for Trump. He must choose precisely, looking at the electoral maps, between the two most likely candidates and suitable to replace a feminist and progressive icon, which today in Washington was greeted by thousands of people. Very favorite it is Amy Coney Barrett: 48 years old, Catholic, 7 children, originally from Indiana as the vice president Mike Pence. The other, in second position, is Barbara Lago, born in Miami to Cuban immigrants, the first Hispanic woman named to the Florida Supreme Court in January 2019.

If Trump were to take a hit, he would lock the conservative 6 to 3 majority in the Court, mortgaging the agenda of the next executive and the next Congress.

But today was just for Ruth Bader Ginsburg. People began flocking to the funeral home at Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Supreme Court as early as dawn, starting with the more than 100 who had worked with her, lined up on the court steps as her coffin was carried inside. The judges gathered with Ginsburg’s family and close friends for a private ceremony inside, before it was displayed on the porch.

His remains will remain in the Supreme Court, on the bier built in 1865 for the president Abraham Lincoln, until Thursday, when Trump’s visit was announced, and then she will be transferred to Congress on Friday, the first woman to have such an honor.
