Trump to Name Supreme Court Nominee Within Two Weeks of Inauguration
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Also at Wednesday's press conference, Trump revealed his plans to name a
replacement for Antonin Scalia, whose Supreme Court seat Republicans
have refused to fill since his death nearly a year ago. Trump said he
was consulting with former Senator Jim De Mint and members of the
Federalist Society on a nominee, to be named within two weeks of the
inauguration.
