Good Wednesday morning. GREAT MENTIONER: Roger Stone sends this hot addition for our Trump Cabinet list: CNBC's Larry Kudlow for Treasury Secretary!

BREAKING - Hillary TV ad attacks Trump, without mentioning him: Clinton does the voiceover, but is unseen, in a spot launching today in New York, ahead of April 19 primary. An aide: "In her remarks at her campaign event today in Harlem, Clinton will echo the same points."

--Hillary voiceover: "New York. Twenty million people strong. No, we don't all look the same. We don't all sound the same, either. But when we pull together, we do the biggest things in the world. So when some say we can solve America's problems by building walls -- banning people based on their religion -- and turning against each other -- well, this is New York. And we know better. I'm Hillary Clinton. And I approve this message." YouTube http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cbd6f8982d41889320fe692024c2ddf5809f455811f1e90ecc


YOU'RE INVITED! Playbook Breakfast on FRIDAY with two West Wing officials running the SCOTUS nomination and confirmation process: White House Counsel Neil Eggleston and senior adviser Brian Deese. They'll take us inside the meetings that Judge Garland has held over the last two weeks, discuss the latest landscape and preview the White House's next moves.

--Doors open Friday at 7:30 a.m.; program starts at 8 at the Mayflower Hotel, 1127 Connecticut Ave. NW (Metro: Farragut North or West). RSVP http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cb687e168cb4605e047316d59552fc186a82e13207974ef729


--"White House maps out next phase of Court fight: The administration feels like it has the advantage - and plans to press the pace in April," by Isaac Dovere, with Seung Min Kim in Iowa: "With small cracks emerging in the Republican Supreme Court blockade - and private indications from some GOP senators that they'd likely back Merrick Garland if he ever did come up for a vote - the White House is preparing to press its perceived political advantage when senators return from their recess next week. ...

"The Supreme Court nominee will have met with 10 senators as of Wednesday, and the White House is looking to load his schedule full with the 52 additional senators (including 16 Republicans) who've said publicly they'll see the judge ...

"That [will continue until] the next, one-week recess in May. [Then] the White House will shift its focus to calling for hearings ... 'It's a game of inches at this point, but if you continue to put inches on the board, you cover some distance,' said one White House aide. ... [W]hile they're still skeptical Garland will get anywhere near being confirmed, the West Wing does at least see a path forward, if only for strengthening the case they'll make against Republican senators going into the fall elections. ...

"The administration thinks it can capitalize on the end of the current Supreme Court term in June - and the possibility of more high-profile decisions deadlocking on 4-4 splits - coming just before the Senate's summer recess. ... Getting a hearing will be nearly impossible, with not just the Republican leadership but every member of the Judiciary Committee signed on to a letter opposing any movement." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cbccd8529a939c971b61420158acf1daccfe6ed59a7bdf4cc3


--"How Democrats could force a Supreme Court vote," by Seung Min Kim in Orange City, Iowa: "In ... town halls in northwest Iowa this week, [Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley] predicted that Senate Democrats ultimately will use a parliamentary maneuver to force a vote on Garland - a rare move that would amount to a major affront to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell ... 'There's nothing we can do about it. Under the rules of the United States Senate, that resolution can be offered anytime,' Grassley told reporters after a Tuesday town hall here, referring to a procedural maneuver called a motion to discharge. ...


"[U]sing a motion to discharge to try to force a vote could ultimately become a nuclear option of sorts for Democrats in the contentious battle to confirm Garland." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cb0a65394bfe5f31b9c320a661cdbbfc95dd074c352b9e696a


--"House Conservatives Trying to Kill Lame-Duck Session," by HuffPost's Matt Fuller: "When the House returns from a two-week recess on April 12, a small group of members are gearing up [to try] to stop GOP leadership in both chambers ... from holding a legislative session after the November election. ... [That] would mean the House would be in session just 17 days for the rest of the year after July 15 - and zero past Sept. 30. ... House conservatives don't want to take any chances that the Senate confirms a Supreme Court nominee or that Congress rams through a big budget agreement ... or the ... trade deal." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cb198b2c1a7c84cf2b762a68c2b8455702311eddc4351cf87b

PEOPLE Magazine cover, "Who Is the Real Donald Trump? 'I'm a Much Nicer Person than People Would Think'" -- He tells Charlotte Triggs: "Listen to the crowd. There's no violence. It's a media fabrication." ... Asked about how he would handle the nation's nuclear-launch codes, Trump says, "That would be such a last resort ... Nobody is going to mess with us. But I would be very, very slow on the draw." ... Asked if he sometimes speaks before thinking, Trump says, "I know what I'm doing. I'm a smart person. The highest level of smart." ...

Trump also boasts he only needs 4 hours of sleep a night and when asked about his workout, he says: "Don't have to. When you're making speeches for 25,000 people and shouting and screaming and having fun with everybody and making America great again, you get a lot of exercise."

FIRST PERSON - People's Charlotte Triggs: "He's a media-savvy guy, always taking care to pay me a compliment.

[!] But I respect PEOPLE and I respect you.'" http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cbc5dfea8c1284c878a1b42afb330c41ee777bcbecff351a11

Why is this reporter touching me as I leave news conference? What is in her hand?? ... Victory press conference was over. Why is she allowed to grab me and shout questions? Can I press charges? ...

--"Battery case against Trump campaign manager seen as strong: 'You have the most corroborating evidence I've seen in a battery case in a long time,' a veteran Florida defense attorney says," by Marc Caputo in Miami: "Miami-Dade criminal defense attorney Patrick J. McGeehan said that, while the evidence indicates there was a battery, the prosecutors might not push the case because it might not be a slam dunk. In reviewing the video footage, McGeehan said, there's a possibility that prosecutors could consider how aggressively Fields pursued Trump as she tried to question him." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cbd4d730b9f0a731ca4475f6cedb2a5f0713f4fd8f6ea66410

Lewandowski's court date is set for May 4 ... According to the police report, video from surveillance cameras at Trump National where the incident took place shows Lewandowski reaching for and grabbing Fields. ... The first-degree misdemeanor carries a maximum $1,000 fine and a maximum jail term of up to one year in prison." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cb9e216ad3854fdb0a71ffa3139c47c8f3f495aeda05d9aca2 ...

DAILY DONALD -- N.Y. Times A12, "Trump vs. Cruz Creates Headache for Radio Hosts," by Nick Corasaniti: "Trump and [Michael] Savage reconciled in a mostly fawning interview ... Mark Levin and Glenn Beck endorsed [Cruz], and have been critical of Mr. Trump. ... Sean Hannity has not publicly staked out a side ... But he warned that any effort to deny Mr. Trump ... if he came close to the 1,237 majority of delegates would be the downfall of the Republican Party. 'If they try to steal this nomination or disenfranchise the voters, it would be the end of the Republican Party ... I guarantee you, it's over.'"

CONVENTION INTRIGUE -- "Rubio working to play a role at GOP national convention," by AP's Steve Peoples and Stephen Ohlemacher: "Rubio has sent letters to Republican officials in states [such as Oklahoma and Alaska] where he has won delegates, charging he wants to keep his delegates, even though he's no longer an active candidate. Representatives from Rubio's network said the former candidate wants to retain his delegates in order to keep his options open in the coming months." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cb0b4a0049093ad83b7939c9c1c2bad65eeb63e2b606a243d2


WHAT THE RIGHT IS READING - Jonah Goldberg, lead story on National Review, "Charting a Course around a Trump Nomination": "Cruz would be the most likely victor in a floor fight, but that isn't assured. The longer the balloting goes, the more likely it is that the bitter and bleary-eyed delegates will opt to order off-menu. That's what Kasich is allegedly counting on. But Kasich is widely disliked, and it might be a good deal easier to find a unifying candidacy in, say, Rick Perry, Scott Walker, Nikki Haley, or Mike Pence." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cb7f565ee5197c3a39961f208b0e46586040ade4e995217a4f

Knapp, a design partner with Google Ventures[,] installed a vacation timer on his home Internet, turning it off every evening.

NEW BETSY FISCHER MARTIN and TAMMY HADDAD podcast - They talk to campaign veterans Haley Barbour and Bob Shrum for Bloomberg's Masters in Politics podcast. Barbour's reaction to Paul Manafort leading the Trump delegate effort: "I think the concern would be for Trump supporters that they've started so late. Cruz has been much more aggressively active on the ground."

Shrum, who worked on Ted Kennedy's 1980 challenge to Jimmy Carter (and wrote his convention concession speech): "There is an analogy [between Teddy and Bernie] and it's not a happy one necessarily for the Sanders campaign. Kennedy did very well in the second half of the primary season. Won California, won New Jersey, won New Mexico on the last day, and nearly won Ohio. If there had been a lot of winner-take-all states, it's quite conceivable that he would have been the nominee. But the proportional representation rules in the Democratic party mean that once you get behind, it's very difficult to catch up." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=c3ab54bbabfe37cb80367b892e43833d920d9e657fe7264c44e1169a1b826961

** A message from the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates: Together, the UAE and US are working to make the Middle East more secure and prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons.

The UAE is the only country in the Arabian Gulf to have a civilian nuclear energy accord (also known as a 123 Agreement) with the US. Called the "gold standard" by nonproliferation experts and government leaders, the UAE has boldly pledged not to enrich uranium or extract plutonium.

Next year, the UAE's first nuclear energy station will begin generating safe, clean electricity. A leader in developing new technologies for renewable and sustainable energy, the UAE is also home to the International Renewable Energy Agency and the Masdar Institute.
