Senator Ted Cruz, R-Texas, spoke with Fox News Wednesday after the announcement that Anthony Kennedy will retire from the Supreme Court of the United States in July, leaving a vacant seat.

“I think the single best choice that President Trump could make to fill this vacancy is Senator Mike Lee,” Cruz said. “I think he would be extraordinary.”

Watch:

“I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Mike Lee would be faithful to the Constitution and Bill of Rights, that he’s not going to evolve,” Cruz added.

Mike Lee, R-Utah, who is on the president’s list of potential candidates, has said he would not refuse the request. LevinTV host Mark Levin is also pushing for Lee’s nomination to the court.
