On Saturday afternoon, here in cold and snowy New York, President-elect Donald Trump interviewed Judge William Pryor of the Eleventh Circuit for the open seat on the U.S. Supreme Court. The opportunity to meet with PEOTUS to talk about SCOTUS must have lifted Judge Pryor’s spirits, in the wake of the loss of his beloved Crimson Tide in Monday’s football championship.

The news of a Trump/Pryor meeting, while notable, is not surprising. At last week’s press conference, Trump said that SCOTUS meetings are underway and we should expect a nominee within two weeks of inauguration day. And Judge Pryor, beloved by conservatives, sits at the top of the Trump SCOTUS list.

This is the guy who wanted to keep homosexuality illegal. I thought Trump was pro-LGBT?

Democrats need to obstruct EVERY choice the Trumpers put out there. EVERY ONE.

Keep the Supreme Court at 8 justices.

I'm worried that Pryor is too activist in the Conservative direction, but so be it if he's nominated. It certainly never stops Democratic picks.

Luckily, you can't.

Thanks Dirty Harry!

Before you pay too much attention take a look at the OP's source.

Is it that hard to believe that he interviewed Pryor? He's been throwing out Pryor's name since February of last year.

That's true, they would need two to flip. And that's unlikely.
