Possible - but a president so fond of giant gold lettering sometimes just goes for the obvious (as he did with Gorsuch). #SCOTUS #AppellateTwitterhttps://twitter.com/varadmehta/status/1012077870653628417 …

Trump saying his pick need to be Harvard or Yale. Rather narrows the list.

Rules out Hardiman if true.
-
And several others, e.g., Amy Coney Barrett, Raymond Kethledge, Joan Larsen, Amul Thapar - but it sounded to me like a somewhat offhand remark by Trump, not an ironclad commitment. But good news for Kavanaugh, I guess!
#SCOTUS -
So I guess Trump is leaning toward Barrett. Collins is on board because Barrett has written extensively about “precedent” (so clearly she respects its value!) and Schumer is trying for a pre-emotive strike.
-
I know she said that about Gorsuch (he wrote about precedent), but has Collins said anything about Barrett specifically? If so, link? (I know Collins spoke over the weekend re: Roe and precedent generally.)
-
Schumer is now going ballistic with a series of tweets about Barrett. He has not done this with any other candidate.
