Trump nominates Neil Gorsuch to fill Supreme Court vacancy

John Yoo quoted by Las Vegas Review Journal, Jan. 31, 2017

The Gorsuch nomination “is a great pick and a safe pick,” former George W. Bush attorney John Yoo opined. “It’s the most conservative person who could get confirmed. It’s very hard to see how the left is going to ‘Bork’ him,” said Yoo, now a University of California, Berkeley law professor, in a reference to the harsh vetting that killed the 1987 nomination of Judge Robert Bork.
