Trump picks Colorado judge to replace Scalia

Hosted by Warren Olney Feb. 01, 2017 National
President Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court fulfills a major campaign promise and lit a fire under Democrats still furious over the Republican stonewalling President Obama's own nominee. Guest host Barbara Bogaev explores whether a possible filibuster will take this fight all the way to Republicans launching the nuclear option -- and destroy the filibuster forever.
