As you know, Justice Scalia died just this last year, and there was a ruckus over whether or not Obama would name a new justice.
Well, the Senate blocked a naming by Obama, and this guaranteed that the new president, Trump, would need to make a pick.

The time is near. The announcement came just around the time of Trump's recent executive order to tighten immigration and halt some Syrian refugees from entering the US.
As far as we know, there are two choices: Neil Gorsuch of the Tenth Circuit and Thomas Hardiman of the Third Circuit.

Trump informed Sean Hannity of Fox News that he pretty much had a decision in mind. Who will it be?

I'd personally pick Judge Andrew Napolitano.

The great thing about Trump is that given the age of current Justices on the US Supreme Court, it is likely in his term/s in office he'll pick a couple/a few. That mean for the next few decades, the court will have an in-built conservative majority so will push legislation to the right for decades to come regardless of who is in the White House. Had Clinton won, it'd have resulted in a left-wing court for the next few decades. Nightmare.

Hopefully someone as to the right as the late Judge Scalia anywho!

Looks like we have a decision, but man, would I have loved to see Napolitano. Always has great advice on TV, Fox News.
