Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death created a vacancy on the nation's highest court, just weeks before the presidential election.

"We all remember Mitch McConnell's blockade of President Obama's nomination of Merrick Garland 237 days before the 2016 election.

"The 2020 election has already started ... it would be a truly inexcusable act of hypocrisy and injustice for Trump and Senate Republicans to move any nomination forward.", telling reporters on Monday that five women"are being looked at and vetted very carefully." The Associated Press has reported that the president already interviewed Judge Amy Coney Barrett, the federal appeals court judge who has emerged as the favorite to replace Ginsburg.

On Monday, Trump also said he may meet with Barbara Lagoa, another candidate on his shortlist, when he travels down to Florida this week. Lagoa, a Cuban American judge, was nominated by Trump to serve on the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals last year. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg delivers remarks at the Georgetown Law Center in Washington, DC, on September 12, 2019.
