If Joe Biden wins in 2020, you can count on the former vice president to appoint former President Barack Obama to the Supreme Court…Yikes! Biden told Stephen Colbert that he thinks Obama is “fully qualified” to be on the Supreme Court.

The Late Show host asked Biden is he’s called Obama for advice and Biden said he talked to “Barack” three or four weeks ago.

Then Colbert asked, “Would you appoint him to the Supreme Court?”

Biden responded, “Hell yes,” and the crowd cheered.

Biden said, “I don’t think he’d do it, but I…”

Colbert chimed in, “He’s a constitutional professor at the University of Chicago.”

Then Biden claimed that Obama is fully qualified, “No, no, I understand, he’s fully qualified, fully qualified.”

Biden continued with a joke saying he would make Michelle Obama his vice president and then pulled back saying he was only kidding.
