Justice Don Willett Mocked Trump Online, His Tweets May Haunt Him

Texas Supreme Court jurist Don Willett, named Wednesday as one of Donald Trump's 11 potential Supreme Court justice picks, is a prolific tweeter who's occasionally skewered the GOP presumptive presidential nominee – once dubbing him "Darth Trump."

Justice Don Willett's Twitter barbs could come back to haunt him if Trump makes it to the White House in November, The Hill reports.

The mocking started the day Trump announced his presidential bid.

"Donald Trump haiku— Who would the Donald Name to #SCOTUS?"Willett asks in the June 16 tweet. "The mind reels. *weeps—can't finish tweet*"

and last month, the jurist poked fun at the real estate billionaire's bragging. "'We'll rebuild the Death Star,'"Willett tweeted, signing off as "Darth Trump.

"We'll rebuild the Death Star. It'll be amazing, believe me. And the rebels will pay for it."
