News Wrap: Trump stands by criticism of courts
In our news wrap Thursday, President Trump insisted that his Supreme Court nominee, Neil Gorsuch, did not call Mr. Trump's tweet criticizing a federal judge "disheartening" and "demoralizing," and said Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal "misrepresented Gorsuch." Also, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan said thousands more troops are needed to help defeat Taliban insurgents.
