      If Hillary Clinton won, there would currently be a Supreme Court with 7 judges. Who are we kidding here?

      I don’t think Kennedy would have retired to open a spot for beer loving Kavanaugh. Something still fishy about all of that and the Deutche Bank connections.... there would be 8

      They wouldn't have replaced Scalia and Ginsburg would have died and not been replaced. So: 7.

          Are you saying that McConnell would have held up any Hillary appointee? But if there were enough votes for Hilary to win, there might well have been enough votes to tie the Senate: O'Rourke (TX), Nelson (FL), McCaskill (MO).

          Or if not O'Rouke then Espy in MS -- actually much closer than the 5% loss by O'Rourke.

          Wouldn’t reducing the number of Justices to 7 require either a Presidential signature or veto-proof majorities in both houses of Congress? Sure they would’ve proposed it, but how would the GOP have actually *succeeded* in reducing the size of the Supreme Court?

          Right? If even 8 Judges for the 4 years until RBG passed.

          Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Ginsberg say she would have retired had Clinton won?

          Ginsburg would have retired - she said so herself.
