As the political fight still roars on over what to do with the Supreme Court seat left vacant by the death of Antonin Scalia, University of Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh has his own idea: Judge Judy.
President Obama has been in talks with people he is considering for his nomination to fill the Supreme Court seat.
Meanwhile, Republicans are insisting that the president should stand down from the process and let the next president decide who fills the position.
But Harbaugh thinks the perfect choice is already clear: Judge Judith Sheinlin.
You may know Sheinlin better as the star of the popular court TV show, “Judge Judy.”
The coach’s endorsement is no surprise. He has made his fandom of the TV-famous judge quite clear in the past.
But with TV stars eagerly thrusting themselves into the political world, the suggestion may not be so absurd after all.
