Deutsche Bank, Anthony Kennedy connection...is Kavenaugh a link in this web? [View all]

From NYT article:

"The bank recruited a handful of Goldman Sachs traders to lead a push into commercial real estate. One was Justin Kennedy, the son of Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy."

snip

"Over the next few years, the commercial real estate group, with Mr. Kennedy now in a senior role, kept lending to Mr. Trump, including to buy the General Motors building in Manhattan. Occasionally, Justice Kennedy stopped by Deutsche Bank’s offices to say hello to the team, executives recalled."

How does this all tie in? Anyone remember the particulars better than I do? I remember it was like Kennedy in effect chose K to be his replacement but don't recall the details. Just how thick is this plot line?
