Say what you will but frankly, I think we have too many women on the USSC now. Look how well that’s working out.
Yep, I know that’s going to be unpopular and frankly, I don’t f***ing care.

Court demographics[edit]
Main article: Demographics of the Supreme Court of the United States
The Court currently has six male and three female justices. Among the nine justices, there is one African-American (Justice Thomas) and one Hispanic (Justice Sotomayor). Two of the justices were born to at least one immigrant parent: Justice Alito’s parents were born in Italy,[96][97] and Justice Ginsburg’s father was born in Russia.[98] At least five justices are Roman Catholics and three are Jewish; it is unclear whether Neil Gorsuch considers himself a Catholic or an Episcopalian.[99] The average age is 67 years and 4 months. Every current justice has an Ivy League background.[100] Four justices are from the state of New York, two from California, one from New Jersey, one from Georgia, and one from Colorado.[101] In the 19th century, every justice was a man of European descent (usually Northern European), and almost always Protestant. Concerns about diversity focused on geography, to represent all regions of the country, rather than religious, ethnic, or gender diversity.[102]

No complaints here. I don’t like any of the women on the USSC.

You know, I happen to think Justice Clarence Thomas is the strongest, most thoughtful Justice on the USSC. He doesn't speak often, when he does it's damn' powerful. Love reading his opinions too. So well thought through, logic, reasoned, Constitutionally based. I truly believe he's the only Justice on the USSC who's a strict constructionist in the spirit of Anton Scalia.

PDJT would do well to look at Clarence Thomas and determine we need another Justice on the court who's made from the same mold.

Just sayin'.
