Wonderful, and the best sign that the purpose is to continue in the tradition of Scalia.
Via Daily Caller:
President Donald Trump honored Maureen Scalia, widow of the late Antonin Scalia, while announcing Neil Gorsuch as his Supreme Court justice nominee Tuesday night.
“Also with us tonight is Maureen Scalia, a woman loved by her husband and deeply respected by all,” Trump told attendees at the White House. “I am so happy she’s with us.”
Trumped then asked Scalia to stand before adding, “she is really the ultimate representative of the late, great Justice Antonin Scalia whose image and genius was in my mind throughout the decision making process.”
Gorsuch also recognized the Scalia family, meeting with Maureen Scalia and Father Scalia, Justice Scalia’s son.
