With Democrats vowing to fight President Donald Trump’s nominee for Supreme Court, one top Senate Democrat said he won’t be joining the effort.
West Virginia’s Joe Manchin will not participate in any Senate filibuster of Trump’s pick to replace late Justice Antonin Scalia on the U.S. Supreme Court, according to The Weekly Standard.
“I’m not going to filibuster anybody,” Manchin told the publication Tuesday before the president announced his choice of Judge Neil Gorsuch.
