On 20th January 2017 Republican Party’s Donald Trump took office of the President of the United States. Appointment of Justices to the Supreme Court, which is the interpreter of the United States Constitution, was one of the campaign’s issues. This article contains predictions concerning retaining or changing the judicature involving chosen issues (abortion, affirmative action, immigration, death penalty, gun, election law) as a result of presumable conservatives’ dominance in the Supreme Court.
