President Donald Trump will get to appoint four justices to the Supreme Court, his former White House counselor Steve Bannon surmised Wednesday night.

His bold prediction was likely based on the health of Ruth Bader Ginsburg and his theory Clarence Thomas will retire so a Republican president can replace him.

Bannon described his thesis to attendees at the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia, two people there relayed to Politico.

Former White House counselor Steve Bannon speculated President Trump could get two more Supreme Court picks

Justice Clarence Thomas has served 26 years and is the longest serving justice

Trump already has two appointments to the high court under his belt: Neil Gorsuch, who replaced deceased Justice Antonin Scalia in 2016 and the controversial Brett Kavanaugh appointment, whom he picked to replace retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy.

Thomas, who is 70, was appointed by George W. Bush and went through a grueling, controversial confirmation process where he was accused of sexual harassment by Anita Hill.

He's served 26 years on the high court and is its longest serving judge.

Ginsburg, in December, underwent surgery to remove cancerous nodules from her left lung. She missed the first three weeks of oral arguments. The court announced her recovery is 'on track' but there is no word on when she'll return to the bench and she canceled two talks she was scheduled to give in Los Angeles and New York.

'I said I will do this job as long as I can do it full steam,' Ginsburg said last month.

Four is not the record but is a larger number of nominations than most presidents receive. Trump's predecessors Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton got two picks each. Ronald Reagan did get four.

The record is held by George Washington, who appointed the original court of 11 judges.

William Taft had the next highest at six while Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln and Dwight Eisenhower got to appoint five.

President Trump has already had two additions to the Supreme Court

Bannon, in his remarks to attendees, also said Trump will be on the ballot in 2020 - the president has already said he's running for re-election - but the former Trump counselor said should the president not run for some reason, slate with former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley at the top of the ticket with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo would be a winner.

He also said he's a fan of freshman Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Politico report, noting he admires the grit of the liberal sensation.

And he predicted a growing economic war with China that will involve more than just trade disputes.
