WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said he met with four potential Supreme Court justices on Monday morning.

The Republican president told reporters at the White House he will meet with two or three additional candidates and make a decision on a nominee in the next few days. An opening was created on the high court last week when Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his retirement.
