A 6-3 court. Or, perhaps even a 7-2 court. The country might be saved.
Turley is a liberal bitch. Ginsberg will have her legacy - the ultraconservative Trump appoints to replace her and the rightward bend of the court for twenty years will be her legacy.
Me like.
The conservative group are not all young like conservatives would have us believe. Kennedy is 81 and Thomas and Alito are pushing 70. A Dem elected in 2020 could restructure the Court even if Ginsburg and Breyer leave.
Lack of clarity here:
“The church was denied funds to resurfacing its playground because of its religious purpose while giving the money to non-religious organizations.”
He contorts logic and language to avoid mentioning the state government, its funding program, the wording of its policy, and its intent — all of which are the actual subjects of the case — through tactical use of the passive voice and simply omitting the government from the sentence. This produces unfortunate ungrammatical constructions, which nevertheless call attention to his effort to avoid stating the case more plainly.
Must be spoken in the manner of Ken Curtis playing Charlie McCorry in The Searchers.
Ginsburg is no different than Paul Ryan, Lindsey Graham and John McCain and 99.99999999999% of the rest of the world in thinking that Trump had zero chance of winning.
She lost. They lost. Trump won. We won.
If Trump was able to replace Ginsburg, Kennedy, Breyer and Thomas, you should have 6 solid conservatives, 2 liberals and wonky Roberts. In that scenario I think Roberts would drop all pretence and reveal himself to be a total liberal. Alito would be the oldest of the conservatives which would (barring an unforeseen death) secure the conservative majority for at least 20 years.
I knew going into the last election I would probably hate half of what Trump would do in office, but it was obvious his Supreme Court picks trumped all other concerns.

FR needs a ‘Like’ button! And I heartily agree!
I’d guess somebody will be following her around like Hillary’s guy and injecting her whenever needed. If that fails, we’ll be seeing “Weekends At Bernie’s” as long as it takes to get a new Communist President elected. Good thing for libs there aren’t cameras in the supreme court. They can roll in a dead body and roll it out as long as it takes - Thomas didn’t talk for decades and nobody I’ve heard questioned if he was still alive - and without video we won’t know if she was “silent” or “dead”.
The Wise Latina and the butchy one will be there forever.
According to (my interpretation of) these CDC life-expectancy tables; the odds favour Ginsberg living about 4 more years. Of course, those statistics do not factor in anything about Ginsberg’s actual health.

She lost it years ago.
Two more originalist leaning justices would enhance confidence Roberts’ tortured, twisted logic would not defeat decisions important to the right.
C’mon. In the picture she is just praying.
I recall Ginsburg once stating she found Christianity offensive.
Ginsberg has been off the court for years.
She and and Kagan performed same sex marriages, but did not recluse themselves from the case that redefined marriage, when that case came before the Supreme Court. They both lost their legacy at that point. They played partisan politics and continued down the path of activist judges who’s ruling create law out of whole cloth, and circumvent the other two branches of government.
“A 6-3 court. Or, perhaps even a 7-2 court. The country might be saved.”
If we stand strong and reject the predictable calls for “fairness” from the Dems to appoint leftists to replace leftists.
