Following his victory in the 2016 presidential election, Republican Donald Trump took office as president on January 20, 2017, and faced an immediate vacancy on the Supreme Court due to the February 2016 death of Associate Justice Antonin Scalia. During the 2016 campaign, Trump had released two lists of potential nominees to the Supreme Court. After taking office, he nominated Neil Gorsuch to succeed Scalia, and Gorsuch was confirmed in April 2017. In November 2017, five more names were added to the previous lists of potential nominees. In June 2018, Associate Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his retirement, creating a second vacancy on the Supreme Court. In early July 2018, Trump nominated Brett Kavanaugh as his replacement.

As three of the Court 's justices at the time -- Ruth Bader Ginsburg ( born 1933 ), Anthony Kennedy ( born 1936 ) and Stephen Breyer ( born 1938 ) -- were aged 78 or older, speculation arose that additional vacancies could occur during Trump 's four - year presidential term. Because Ginsburg and Breyer were part of the liberal wing of the Court and Kennedy was a swing vote who often aligned with them on social issues, many top political analysts saw Trump 's term as a chance for Republicans to reshape the court significantly towards a more conservative vision of the law. On June 27, 2018, this became a real possibility when Justice Kennedy officially announced his retirement. Following the retirement of Anthony Kennedy on July 31, 2018, the Supreme Court is currently composed of the following eight Justices : Name Age Serving since Appointed by Law School ( JD or LLB ) John Roberts ( Chief Justice ) 7004232250000000000 ♠ 63 2005 George W.

On February 13, 2016, Associate Justice Antonin Scalia was found dead while vacationing at Cibolo Creek Ranch near Marfa, Texas. Scalia 's death marked just the second time in sixty years that a sitting Supreme Court Justice died. It led to a rare but not unprecedented Supreme Court nomination during the last year of a presidency. Mitch McConnell, the Senate Majority Leader, stated the new President should replace Scalia, while President Obama stated that he planned to nominate someone to replace Scalia on the Supreme Court. On February 23, the eleven Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee signed a letter to McConnell stating their intention to withhold consent on any nominee made by President Obama, and that no hearings would occur until after January 20, 2017, when the new president took office. On March 16, 2016, Obama nominated then - Chief Judge Merrick Garland ( of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ), to replace Scalia. After Garland 's nomination, McConnell reiterated his position that the Senate would not consider any Supreme Court nomination until a new president took office. Garland 's nomination expired on January 3, 2017, with the 114th Senate having taken no action on the nomination. During his 2016 presidential campaign, while Garland remained before the Senate, Trump released two lists of potential nominees. On May 18, 2016, he released a short list of eleven judges for nomination to the Scalia vacancy. On September 23, 2016, he released a second list of ten possible nominees, this time including three minorities. Both lists were assembled by the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation. Days after Trump 's inauguration, Politico named three individuals as the front - runners for Scalia 's position : Neil Gorsuch, Thomas Hardiman and Bill Pryor, with Trump reportedly later narrowing his list down to Gorsuch and Hardiman. At the time of the nomination, Gorsuch, Hardiman, and Pryor were all federal appellate judges who had been appointed by President George W. Bush. President Trump and White House Counsel Don McGahn interviewed those three individuals as well as Judge Amul Thapar of the U.S. District Court for Eastern District of Kentucky in the weeks before the nomination. Trump announced Gorsuch as his nominee on January 31. Gorsuch was confirmed by the United States Senate in a 54 -- 45 vote on April 7, 2017, with votes of 51 Republicans and 3 Democrats. Gorsuch was sworn in as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court on April 10 by Kennedy. Nomination of Brett Kavanaugh Kavanaugh and his family with President Donald Trump in 2018 Main article : Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court nomination On June 27, 2018, Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his retirement from the Supreme Court, effective July 31, giving Trump an opportunity to send a second Supreme Court nominee to the Senate for confirmation. Trump nominated Brett Kavanaugh on July 9. Possible nominees Below is a list of individuals which President Trump has identified as his potential nominees for Supreme Court appointments. Most of them were revealed in two lists released by the Trump campaign in 2016. Others were added to a revised list released by the White House on November 17, 2017. Following the nomination of Amul Thapar to the Sixth Circuit, it was noted that Trump might try to season some of the candidates on his list with federal appellate court experience prior to potential nomination to the Supreme Court. Indeed, Trump later elevated a number of state court judges from his list to fill vacant positions on the federal Courts of Appeals : Joan Larsen ( Sixth Circuit ), David Stras ( Eighth Circuit ), Allison Eid ( Tenth Circuit ), Don Willett ( Fifth Circuit ), and Britt Grant ( Eleventh Circuit ). Conversely, two previous Trump appointees to the Courts of Appeals -- Amy Coney Barrett ( Seventh Circuit ) and Kevin Newsom ( Eleventh Circuit ) -- were later added to the list of potential Supreme Court candidates. Despite speculation that Trump might consider other candidates for a possible second Supreme Court nomination, he said in May 2017 that he would make his next appointment from the same list he used to choose Gorsuch ( the combined 21 names given on either of the two lists he released during the campaign ), describing the list as `` a big thing '' for him and his supporters. Trump added five further candidates to the list on November 17, 2017. Note : Names marked with a single asterisk ( * ) were included on the original short list of eleven potential candidates for the Scalia vacancy released by the Trump campaign on May 18, 2016. Names marked with a double asterisk ( * * ) were included on the additional short list of ten more potential candidates released on September 23, 2016. Names marked with a triple asterisk ( * * * ) were added to the revised short list of November 17, 2017. Courts of Appeals United States Courts of Appeals Court of Appeals for the D.C.
