Donald J. Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, released a list of potential Supreme Court nominees on Wednesday as part of an effort to quell concerns that he would not select conservative jurists.
After
the death of Justice Antonin Scalia in February, critics of Mr. Trump
expressed concern about whether he had the judgment to fill vacancies on
the court. He had joked about appointing his sister, Maryanne Trump
Barry, who is a senior judge on the United States Court of Appeals for
the Third Circuit in Philadelphia, before suggesting that he would look
for someone in the mold of Mr. Scalia and later promising to furnish
some prospective candidates.
