President Trump unloaded on his 2016 election rival during a fiery speech in Texas Monday night; joking he may have to nominate Hillary Clinton to the US Supreme Court so she could “finally be investigated.”

"If you want the Fake News to investigate Hillary Clinton we have to nominate her to the Supreme Court. How do you like that? Let's see how she does. If Kavanaugh had to go through what he went through can you imagine Hillary up there? 3-4 years of questions." pic.twitter.com/lEFFxNqxC1
