Unsure if NRO is excerpt required.
"During the second Democratic primary debate Thursday night, Senator Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) raised the possibility of rotating justices off of the Supreme Court so that they could be replaced with jurists whose philosophy aligns more closely with his own.
"...I do believe constitutionally we have the power to rotate judges to other courts and that brings in new blood into the Supreme Court..."

Works for me if he starts with Roberts.
FDR would have done it if he could.
Now that we’re post-Constitutional Bernie probably could if he got elected.
This is absolute insanity run amuck.
I do believe constitutionally we have the power...”
Oh, so now the Dems believe in the constitution ?
I’d start with Ginsburg, Kagan, and Sotomayor.
A President cannot remove or ‘demote’ any Justice. The House could draw up impeachment paperwork, and the Senate could impeach the guy.
The only other authority out there is a state law board finding the individual has a ethics or behavioral problem, and decertifying their license to practice law.
Bernie is about the last guy you want to go and ask legal questions.
“Oh, so now the Dems believe in the constitution ?”
They believe in anything that gains them more power. Even if they have it invent it.
Bernie, it’s called packing the court

Watching Bernie at last night’s debates confirms the he should be committed to a mental institution immediately. The man is filled with hate and rage and is a threat to the United States.
Yep, in a normal world, Trump would win 50 states.
Better yet, let’s make it an elected office with set terms.
Yeah he could probably pack the court but no chance of it happening as long as the Senate remains Republican.
I detest these three, but they don't pretend to be on my side. I know who they are and I know what they'll do. Same with Roberts. He's a slime.
Yeah, it’s gotta be in there somewhere. /s
“Bernie is about the last guy you want to go and ask legal questions.”
Other than that, he’s King Solomon.
Someone should do a mash-up of Bernie video clips from the debate with the Dr. Demento classic They're Coming To Take Me Away by "Napoleon XIV". Introduce the Millenials to a mid-'60s novelty tune that is 100% on-point.
And he would do that until he got it stacked with liberals and then miraculously decide the system was fine the way it was!!
He tried to stack it!!!
Trump should tweet the same.
What would be the reaction?
Screaming impeachment!!!
