You know, when they interviewed the candidates, they had narrowed it down to seven people, and they asked every single one of them in those interviews, ‘who would you pick if it wasn’t you?’ and the other six people all said the same name: Neil Gorsuch. And that’s why you saw him get the highest-rating possible from the ABA. So I think that’s an enormous achievement for a 49 year-old justice who’s going to be on the court for 20-30 years.”
