Justice Sotomayor was hospitalized earlier this year. What's that, you didn't hear about that? Exactly.

No wonder the left is freaking out more than usual.

He might even be underestimating it. Kagan is a fatty and Breyer is 80.

Maybe 5. Next is RBG seat. Then Thomas retires. If Sotomayor is a brittle diabetic she really may not last long. That’s 5. Could be 6. It would be funny as hell if by 2024 Kagan was the ONLY non Trump. Funny as hell.

I think...if Kavanaugh gets passed through and makes it....that makes two. I would suggest that Thomas will retire in the next twelve months, and I have my doubts that Ginsburg and Breyer can make it through six more years of Trump. Toss in Thomas (I think he’ll retire by summer of next year), and Sotomayor (probably by 2020, because of declining health). You might see a total of six picks if he’s there for eight years.

I will also suggest this. I think after this episode with Kavanaugh....when you see a Democratic Justice pass on or retire....Trump will likely take his time (maybe 12 to 24 months) before he selects anyone. He’ll hold the party to some intense political chatter and make gains off that.

I know many here don't believe Q, but he mentioned months ago that Ginsberg was dirty, and that Trump knew it. She was involved in the "selling" of her seat, that was supposed to be be taken by Loretta Lynch as part of the infamous Tarmac Deal Meeting.

Q said that Trump would nail Ginsberg for this, and get her out. Q also said that Justice Scalia was murdered.

President Trump is assuring that there will be no more legislation coming from the bench.

His position about the Constitution involves a separation of powers issue.

And he is right.

Breyer (age 80) is likely to go too, within the next six years. I would also like to see Thomas (age 70) resign before the end of President Trump’s second term. As much as I like him, I would feel better with a much younger man in the spot, and Trump has proven he keeps his word on judicial nominations (and everything else). With Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and RBG’s replacement, plus hopefully the Wise Latina’s replacement, that would take us to six young Justices who believe in written law rather than a “Living Constitution”. That may be enough to protect freedom without a civil war.

Seriously people this could be the opportunity of a generation. God says:
2 Chronicles 7:14 King James Version (KJV)
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

This is the time for that. What is our job? it is to be humble and pray! Not much to ask. More productive than speculating and be frustrated.

God bless

I’m hoping for five or six.

3rd - rbg - no need to belabor that a two-time cancer patient who is 85 might croak in the not-too-distant future.

4th - breyer - he’s 80. Lots of folks croak before their 85th birthday.

5th - sotomayor - on-going health problems that are exacerbated by stress.

6th - Associate Justice Clarence Thomas will be 76 by the end of President Trump’s second term. How about we give him a big, richly deserved retirement party around 2021, and pass the mantle to a bright, young, brilliant, conservative THIRTY-EIGHT year old strict originalist?

It is entirely possible. I have been contemplating this for some time.
