Most important, he receives rave reviews from those who know him best: his former students and fellow members of the legal community. “I’m a liberal feminist lawyer,” Lisa Blatt writes. “Sometimes a superstar is just a superstar.”  What to know about President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Photo of the Day Official White House Photo by Andrea Hanks First Lady Melania Trump visits with four-year-old Essence Overton during her visit to the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt in Nashville, Tennessee | July 24, 2018
