Former President Donald Trump cemented the conservative majority on the Supreme Court. If Trump wins again, Biden said"one of the scariest parts" would be his power to fill upcoming vacancies.
“The next president is likely to have two new Supreme Court nominees. Two more. He’s already appointed two that have been very negative in terms of rights of individuals,” Biden said. Trump named three justices during his term – Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanagh and Amy Coney Barrett – cementing the conservative majority on the bench.
Biden filled one Supreme Court vacancy during his term, nominating Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman to serve on the court.
