He probably learned about the Justice’s potential intentions by looking through Obama’s intelligence reports from incidental surveillance on the SCOTUS justices.
Go for a half dozen...add a couple more for fun
And split the 9th circus.
I just want one to replace Ginsburg/Breyer. I am sick of Kennedy holding so much sway.
Who’s next?
The full list of the twenty-one individuals Mr. Trump will consider is below:
1. Keith Blackwell
2. Charles Canady

SCOTUS is thoroughly politicized. None of these fossils will retire; they’ll die in office, like Scalia. Kennedy is the most important of whom to be rid. Remember, too, that Roberts is no Constitutionalist or Originalist...just another in a long line of disappointing ‘Pub picks.
Personally I would be talking to Roberts since there are a ton of rumors of him being blackmailed on Obamacare. You can not allow that to continue to hang out there without it being discussed with him.
I think one is more probable. My guess is the liberals will die in office before they let Trump pick their successor.
Has anyone seen Ginsburg awake in the last 3 years?
You don’t take anything Trump says as fact. He loves to exaggerate and is a shameless optimist. He is merely being optimistic. Good for him. But Trump will be lucky to put 2 more justices on SCOTUS if he gets re-elected, which is far from a sure thing.
I think he gets another nominee this term and another if he gets a 2nd term. 3 would still be great if those leaving are Ginsberg and Stephen Breyer. That would be good.
Justice Ted Cruz to replace the dead old lady Ginsburg.
He only needs one more to make an originalist majority.
First time in 70 years.
meh- Christ returns on Sept 22-
Weekend at Ginsburg's
I thought I saw a version of Ginsburg but I can't find it. I know there's a Sanders one.
When Obama is proven to have been an Illegitimate President then the two hags he put on the Court will have to be replaced.
He will not be packing the court; he'll be correcting it.
Ginsburg, Kennedy and Breyer should retire due to age before Trumps term is up.
Then if Trump should be reelected, Roberts, Thomas, Alito and Sotomayor should retire due to age.
That means aat the end of 8 years efully thst means 8 constitutionalist justices with at least 20 years to serve. Kagen being the only lib left
