President Trump reveals when he will announce his SCOTUS pick

President Donald Trump said he will announce his nominee for the Supreme Court at 5 pm on Saturday.
'I'm getting very close to having a final decision made, very close,' Trump told reporters at the White House on Tuesday evening, of his pick to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Judge Amy Coney Barrett is reported to be at the top of his short list with Judge Barbara Lagoa in second. Trump has vowed to pick a woman to replace Ginsburg, a feminist icon and hero to liberals. Whomever he picks, the president is expected to shift the court to the right with his decision. 
Saturday's announcement will come shortly before the president leaves for Pennsylvania, where he will hold a rally in Middletown in the crucial 2020 battleground state.
