While Republicans are favored to keep the Senate, they may lose seats. Trump’s appointments have been sailing through the Senate with 53 GOP votes. If the conference shrinks to 51-52 in the next Congress, the math for confirming justices as conservative as Alito & Thomas gets much harder.

I don’t see it. Thomas has literally said he wants to die on the bench, and Trump just said in an interview last week that he "hopes they stay." They aren't going to be bullied into retiring by some "strategic" plan. No vacancy in 2026.
