Intensifying debate over when to choose a successor to the U.S. Supreme Court

Intensifying debate over when to choose a successor to the U.S. Supreme Court Justice September 21 9:07

Following the death of a liberal female judge in the U.S. Supreme Court, President Trump plans to appoint a female judge to replace him later this week, but opposition and Democratic parties strongly oppose choosing a replacement before the presidential election. However, there is fierce debate over the timing of choosing a successor, as there are disagreements within the ruling and Republican parties.

In the United States, a liberal judge of the Supreme Court, Ginsburg, died on the 18th, and the selection of a successor is drawing a lot of attention.

President Trump said at a rally of supporters yesterday that he would nominate a female judge later this week, with Republican Cruz in the Senate approving the nomination on ABC TV, saying, "The Senate is in the presidential election. You should approve your successor before, "he said, and said he should rush to nominate and approve.

In response, opposition Democratic Party candidate Joe Biden, who strongly opposes the choice of a successor before the presidential election, addressed on the 20th, insisting that "the Senate should not approve before the election."

In addition, Republicans have expressed their opposition to rushing approval before the elections by several senators.

Judges in the Supreme Court have an important role in making decisions on issues that divide American society, such as gun control and the pros and cons of abortion.

With President Trump's nomination, the Supreme Court may become more conservative, and there is fierce debate over when to choose a successor.
