INTERVIEW – SENATOR BEN CARDIN – D-MARYLAND — shared his thoughts on the Supreme Court nomination pick.

• Dick Durbin: Blocking Trump’s Supreme Court pick more important than red state Dems getting re-elected
• Politico: Trump is starting to pressure red-state Democrats to support his Supreme Court pick. Key Democrats face a tough balancing act on Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation
• Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin:The Supreme Court was designed as an independent check on both legislative and executive power. It should not be a rubber stamp on the extreme partisan positions of the president. #ScotusPick #WhatsAtStake
• Senator Ben Cardin @SenatorCardin: A grim reminder that @POTUS is continuing to destabilize our #healthcare system. This is astoundingly irresponsible. These ongoing efforts to sabotage the #ACA put lives at risk, as families will see coverage move further and further out of reach.
