no senator appears to be willing to be the first person who publicly calls for Sotomayor to step down.
However, Democrats have discussed possible replacements, with D.C. Circuit Judge J. Michelle Childs being mentioned.
Childs was vetted and even received backing by a few GOP senators such as Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C.

There is absolutely zero chance in hell anyone in Congress goes along with this. They can read a map. There are a lot of congressmen scared s**tless this week.
I don’t think they have time...nomination...Senate Judiciary committee...
Is there enough time to replace her ? LOL
Sotomayor is probably going to be sleeping with one eye open.
Stay tuned......
There is insufficient time to get this done. Plus, Sotomayor can ignore them without issues. The Constitution says that she has lifetime tenure. But this article legitimately does raise the likelihood that Trump will have 2 or 3 more picks for the Supreme Court. May he use those picks wisely, to solidify a conservative Court for the next 20 years.
Yeah, if she was gonna leave, the time to do that was the early Summer. This smacks of desperation and with the Congressional schedule between now and the end of the year, I can’t imagine they could push it through in any scenario.
She needs to avoid any hunting resorts in Texas
Manchin and Sinema have already said they would not support this. The issue is dead, despite the hyperventilating.
Yep, this is a fever dream at best.
This has the STENCH of Baraq 0bama and desperation all over it! Remember, it was 0bama who nominated Merrick Garland to the SCOTUS!
Man. To slip a silicon listener into those offices
Imagine the intel
Sotomayor has gotta be thinking...
“I’ve ruled on cases the way a good liberal would do. I’ve rarely broken ranks with them. OK, I get it. I’m sick with diabetes - but it’s not like I suffered a debilitating stroke. And this is the gratitude I get?”
“Played”. The traditional Dem unity is in tatters, they couldn’t agree on where to go for lunch right now, much less on this. Plus they just want their long holiday vacation and quality time with their blankies.
She’s “a wise Latina with the richness of her experiences who will reach a better conclusion than the white liberal who hasn’t lived that life”
Yeah, Bathhouse Barry is clinging to any limb as he falls from his tree.
She should avoid hunting with the Cheneys
Is Sotomayor sick? Is there a reason they don’t expect her to outlive Trump’s presidency?
Yeh, she might get ‘Anthony Scalia’d by the Clintons.
