Chuck Schumer issues a dire warning to Trump about his Supreme Court choice
Sen. Chuck Schumer offered a dire assessment this week of what would happen if President Donald Trump nominated a Supreme Court justice who could help to roll back abortion rights or the Affordable Care Act.
Trump called the Senate minority leader on Tuesday, and Schumer told the president that picking a justice hostile to the Roe v. Wade ruling or Obamacare would be “cataclysmic,” a person familiar with the conversation told CNBC. The New York Democrat told Trump that such a choice would divide the United States and tarnish his legacy, the person added.
