>>We might see two more new chief justices while President Trump holds office..

There’s nothing magical about 9 SCOTUS judges.. Once the “Reid rule” is invoked, Trump COULD nominate 2 more to bring the number up to 11. Just to rub the Dhimmis’ noses in it. Then another 2 once Ginsberg and Breyer resign..

It is set by statute.

[Cboldt]

The number of justices on SCOTUS is set by Congress. 28 USC 1

The number has not always been set at nine.

Congress sets the number of justices on the SC. This would require a law change.
