Question 18 options:
True
False

Answer 1

True because the supreme court is going to take the candidate into consideration

Answer 2

The correct answer is false.

If the president nominates a candidate for the Supreme Court, the Senate can reject the candidate. It's part of its function as the upper chamber of Congress.

The President of the United States has the power to nominate a candidate for the Supreme Court, but the Constitution establishes the procedure and mentions that the nominee must be approved by the Senate. So the nomination is sent to the Senate Judiciary Committee for approval.
