Trump Considering Five Women for Supreme Court Vacancy

Steve Herman

   WHITE HOUSE - U.S. President Donald Trump met at the White House on
   Monday with one of the five women on his list to replace Supreme Court
   Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, according to sources.

   The 87-year-old liberal icon died last Friday after a lengthy battle
   with cancer.

   Trump said he would announce his nominee after funeral services for her
   later this week.

   The president mentioned Amy Coney Barrett by name, along with Barbara
   Lagoa, as he spoke to reporters before boarding his Marine One
   helicopter on the South Lawn. He did not confirm meeting with Barrett.
