She previously clerked for the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.

He also spent almost two years working for Kenneth Starr, the special prosecutor who investigated Clinton over Whitewater and his affair with a White House intern Monica Lewinsky.Allison Eid is pictured in 2017. | Alex Brandon/AP PhotoAllison Eid of Colorado, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, 53.

Finley/AP PhotoRaymond Gruender of Missouri, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, 54. Gruender, a former U.S. Attorney in St. Louis under Bush, has been a solidly conservative vote on the 8th Circuit since winning confirmation on a 97-1 vote in 2004. Before taking the U.S. Attorney post, he worked as a prosecutor there, handling white collar crime and corruption cases involving county council members, as well as lawyers and judges connected to a scandal in Missouri’s workers’ compensation system.On the appeals court, Gruender wrote an en banc decision in 2008 upholding South Dakota’s “informed consent” law on abortion, and he later wrote an opinion stating that the state has the right to force doctors to tell women seeking abortions that they would be at risk of committing suicide if they underwent the procedure. (Colloton, who sits on the same court, also endorsed both those views.)Thomas Hardiman is pictured in 2017., | Matt Slocum/AP PhotoThomas Hardiman of Pennsylvania, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, 52. Hardiman spent about three years as a federal judge in Pittsburgh before being nominated to the 3rd Circuit in 2006. Hardiman graduated from Notre Dame and went to law school at Georgetown.A 2007 ruling Hardiman wrote upheld the constitutionality strip searches of jail prisoners regardless of how minor an offense they were accused of. The Supreme Court later endorsed his decision, 5-4.Hardiman won favor with gun rights advocates for a 2013 dissent that said New Jersey was violating the Second Amendment to the Constitution by requiring those seeking to carry a handgun to demonstrate a “justifiable need” for such a permit.Raymond Kethledge of Michigan, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, 51.

Spencer Abraham (R-Mich.) before heading across the street to clerk for Kennedy.In 2014, Kethledge wrote an opinion rejecting a groundbreaking Equal Employment Opportunity Commission case seeking to limit private employers’ use of credit checks for job applicants. The EEOC argued that the practice amounted to racial discrimination. Kethledge accused the agency of hypocrisy.Last year, Kethledge issued a politically charged ruling blasting the Obama administration for “continuous resistance” to efforts to discover what actions the IRS took against conservative nonprofit groups.He is reportedly one of four candidates who Trump interviewed on Monday.Joan Larsen is pictured in 2016. | Cliff Owen/AP PhotoJoan Larsen of Michigan, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, 49. Larsen offers conservatives the possibility of installing a justice who could serve for three decades.She also has the shortest judicial record of any of those considered finalists: She spent nearly all of her legal career as a law professor at the University of Michigan before being appointed to that state’s top court in September 2015, less than a year before Trump publicly named her as a potential Supreme Court pick.A Northwestern law grad, Larsen clerked for Scalia.Sen.

Pryor is a favorite among many constitutional conservatives for his often caustic criticism of the leading liberal Supreme Court decisions. He has called Roe v. Wade, the 1973 abortion rights ruling, “the worst abomination of constitutional law in our history.”Pryor made it onto the 11th Circuit in 2004 via a rare recess appointment from Bush after Senate Democrats blocked a vote on Pryor’s nomination for nearly a year. He was confirmed on a 53-45 vote in 2005 as part of the so-called “Gang of 13” deal that allowed approval of several stalled Bush judicial nominees but preserved the right to filibuster.While Pryor’s record as an appeals court judge has been staunchly conservative, he surprised many legal observers in 2011 by joining a decision holding that some discrimination against transgender individuals is prohibited by constitutional doctrine forbidding sex discrimination.Margaret Ryan of Virginia, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces, 54. Ryan was appointed to the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forced by Bush in 2006.A graduate of Notre Dame Law School, she is a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps and clerked for Thomas.David Stras is pictured in 2012. | Glenn Stube/The Star Tribune/AP PhotoDavid Stras of Minnesota, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, 43.

A former justice of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, Sykes was part of a legal movement that helped set in motion a conservative transformation of the judiciary in her home state.Sykes was confirmed to the 7th Circuit in 2004 and was reportedly on Bush’s Supreme Court short list if a vacancy emerged in the last couple years of his second term. On the appeals court, she issued a decision compelling a state-run university to recognize a Christian legal group as an official school organization even though the group banned leaders engaged in homosexuality or "fornication."Sykes also voted to reinstate Wisconsin’s voter ID law just eight weeks before the 2014 general election. The Supreme Court reversed that decision by a 6-3 vote, but the justices allowed the law to take effect once that election was complete.Amul Thapar is pictured in 2006. | Ed Reinke/AP PhotoAmul Thapar of Kentucky, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, 49.
