Former House Speaker John Boehner said Wednesday evening he intends to vote for Donald Trump because he expects the Supreme Court to play a larger role in deciding future policy issues due to congressional gridlock that will continue to spur increased executive actions by the president.

“The legislative process, the political process in Washington is at a stand still and will be regardless of who wins, and the only thing that really matters over the next four years or eight years is who’s going to appoint the next Supreme Court nominees,” Boehner told Fox News host Brit Hume. “I just believe that the next president’s going to appoint two, three, maybe four justices to the Supreme Court and all throughout the federal court system because more and more issues because they can’t be dealt with legislatively are going to end up in the court system.”
