Donald Trump Says He値l List His Top Supreme Court Picks
Source: NY Times
Donald J. Trump on Sunday promised to make public this week a list of five to 10 judges he would nominate to the Supreme Court, seeking to ease concerns among conservatives that he would appoint liberal justices if he is elected president.
...
Saying that he was about to make news, Mr. Trump said the next president would remake the high court. “You might have five Supreme Court justices to be picked over the next four years, because we already have one, and you’ll probably have four more,” he said. “So you could change the balance of the court very quickly, very easily.”
...
“So what I’m going to do is, I’m going to get between five and 10 judges that everybody respects, likes and totally admires,” he said, adding that he would “guarantee it personally, like we do in the world of business, which we don’t like to do too often, but I will guarantee it that those are going to be the first judges that I put up for nomination if I win.”,,,
A spokeswoman, Hope Hicks, said late Sunday night that Mr. Trump would release the names of those judges sometime this week.

Mr. Trump also lamented a report in The New York Times about conservatives looking to field a third-party candidate if he captures the Republican nomination. “They’re plotting against me,” he said, adding that if his detractors’ gambit succeeded, Republican donors should save their money on the presidential race and support candidates for lower offices instead.
Mr. Trump played insult comic at one point: After calling the people in the room “fantastic businessmen,” he paused, then added: “Maybe you’re not, because you paid 25,000 bucks to have a picture with me.”
Just kidding, he said, amid laughter.
In other seemingly candid moments, Mr. Trump said he frequently brings up his proposal to build a wall on the nation’s border with Mexico when the energy in a room is “lagging” and he wants to whip up the crowd. And he ruminated about the millions that have been spent against him in television ads, only to see his numbers go up.
“I don’t know what the hell is going on in politics,” he said.
