Speaking in Dayton, Ohio, Mr Trump said he was going to announce his Supreme Court nominee on Saturday, or maybe even as early as Friday.

U.S. President Donald Trump has mocked Democrats over their criticism of his plan to put forward a Supreme Court nomination as soon as possible.“Now they want to impeach me again if I nominate somebody as I’m constitutionally obligated to do to serve on the Supreme Court of the U.S.,” Mr Trump said.“It will be a brilliant person, I have five [people] that we’re vetting right now … it will be a woman,” Mr Trump said.

Colorado Republican, Cory Gardner said that he was ready to vote on Mr Trump’s Supreme Court nominee and would vote to support the president’s pick if the nominee is qualified. “When a President exercises constitutional authority to nominate a judge for the Supreme Court vacancy, the Senate must decide how to best fulfill its constitutional duty of advice and consent,” Mr Gardner said.

Mr Trump said earlier on Monday that he may choose his nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court by the end of the week and is considering picking from a list of five women candidates to replace the deceased justice Ruth Ginsburg.
