How many new Supreme Court Justices will Trump appoint?

[Anonymous]

I'm finding it hard to believe Thomas will willingly resign. I think he loves his job too much. Alito? Maybe.

You can be sure there are things about Thomas that no one knows, and he most certainly doesn't want public. He'll "retire" when those in power decide it's beneficial.

Two.

It's likely Thomas and Alito will choose this administration to retire. Everyone will be watching Sotomayor however. Can she stay out of the hospital for four years? If she can't, well, there goes one more seat and the Court becomes an insurmountable 7-2 conservative majority for decades.

Hopefully 4. Roberts needs to go.

Most likely two, out of the following three - Thomas, Alito, and Sotomayor. Roberts isn't going anywhere.
Trump would never try to pack the Court with more than nine. That was purely a Democrat plan.

The Supreme Court will get younger in the next 4 years. I'm sure the old conservatives will be pressured to retire. Thomas may just be cast out for his indiscretions. Sotomayor has some significant health issues. Perhaps Trump decided to pack the court.

Alito and Thomas are going to retire to cushy of counsel positions or emeritus positions.
Sotomayor is going to try to hold on, but we are going to be white knuckling it a bit.

Thomas loves power more than money and he loves sticking it to Democrats. Roberts isn't going to do anything about Thomas's lack of ethics so he will stay on the court and continue to take from his billionaire pals.

Thomas has never been the swing vote on any decision.
He could make 10 times what he makes now in the private sector.

At least 4 to get to the Democrat Party goal of, minimum, 13. If he can get rid of Roberts and Sotomayor along with the retirements of Thomas and Alito which are coming? 8 seems like a good number to start.

Well Judge Cannon needs to be moved up. She will replace Alito. That will be a major increase in both intelligence and competency. Maybe Giuliani for Thomas‘s spot.

The big coup(lol) will be replacing Roberts with Eastman. Roberts still having those fainting spells?

Dark(or should we say slow) horses Jenna Ellis and Michael Cohen.

The Democrats no longer believe this is in the best interests of the country.
They thought it was very important in 2022 and 2023.
I'm not sure what happened but they stopped believing this recently.

Of course he was. Starting with Dobbs.

Biden killed that as soon as he came in to office. Biden was only concerned about not upsetting the Republicans and keeping the status quo.

The court needs reform and needs to be expanded to handle the increase workload. Every time they take some trans athlete case there are 100’s of businesses case that are not addressed. If a case is appealed to SCOTUS it should be heard in a reasonable time frame.

The Republicans have thoroughly corrupted the current court and selected only RWNJs a justices. So it is time to time limit appointments, force a strict code of conduct/ethics, enforce conflict of interests, increase the pool of judges to eliminate the gaming of the court and allow the incoming President to appoint a new majority(done within the time limits).

Also the House of Representatives needs to be increase by 100-120 representatives. Has not been increase in over a 100 years. The house was meant to be more representative vs what it is now.
