Asked by the source who the other vacancies would be, Trump said Ginsburg’s seat is likely to become vacant. “What does she weigh? 60 pounds?” Trump told the source.

Asked who the fourth vacant seat would be, Trump replied “Sotomayor,”

How many people had to have their heads up their a$$es to let that happen?

A few terrified GOPe Senators was all it took.

That “60 pounds” remark is something I’d never in a million years thought I’d hear from the WH. If she wasn’t so evil I’d be against such a remark.

Bush’s remark would’ve been something like...we all retire sooner than later. Justice Ginsburg has been a tremendous service to her country and the Supreme Court, blah blah blah.

If I am not mistaken, type 2 is a bigger problem in this country.

________________________________________________________

While type II or (type 2) has more patients than type 1, type 1 is much more difficult to manage. In Type 1 the Pancreas function has completely failed. In type 2 while the Pancreas functions there are other chemical balance problems that either miss-manage the insulin produced by the Pancreas or other chemical imbalances that retard the body’s ability to use the insulin produced. The usual management is to either increase insulin, enhance the body’s ability to use the insulin produced or through exercise and diet reduce the amount of insulin needed. All of these can be used together to make a person with type 2 lead a pretty normal lifestyle.

While in reality type 2 should be hardly a problem for people, unfortunately people are reluctant to follow the regimen required to stay healthy.

With type 1 you must be almost anal about managing the disease or you are constantly in the hospital or you go to your grave, in type 2 mismanagement exhibits its effects over a longer period of time with circulation problems and heart disease. Once these effects take hold it is very difficult to manage. The circulation problems lead to problems in the extremities especially the feet and legs, amputations are common.

So, while type 1 mismanagement leads to the grave pretty quickly if not managed well, type 2 can be managed with minimal effect on life but usually is not managed well so that complications from the disease make life miserable and in the end still kill you.

In sotomayor’s case, as a scotus justice she would receive the best care in the world.

Wonder if the Scalia family would concur?

She’s a wide-scale abortion provider...as are the others in that photo.

It’s the reason she was considered for the position to begin with and the reason she’s in

Trump can say anything he wants to about he. W had a certain amt of class. So does Trump. I draw the line at mass murder of pre-born babies

It’s about time.

She will be long gone before that. She was a good friend of the late Justice Scalia and most likely has not recovered from that loss.

I agree...”It’s about time”. I’m just constantly amazed at how Trump says what we’re thinking and would like to say.

Maybe she would be interested in a hunting weekend at a West Texas resort?

I remember when after Justice Scalia’s passing that both Justices Ginsberg and liked opera music. His sudden passing may have affected her.
