SUPREME COURT: “And remember this, in terms of, ‘Get Out the Vote’ — the next President, I think, could have anywhere from two to four, to maybe even five — just based on statistics; statistically — Supreme Court justices to pick. Think of that: I’ve had two. Some — some Presidents have had none because you, generally, pick them young, and they last a long time, right? They can last a long time.
But — but we could have two to three to four, maybe even to five. It’s probably a stretch, but four isn’t a stretch at all. That would mean that the entire balance of the court doesn’t just shift: It becomes dominant.”
