Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Sunday said she hopes to remain on the high court for at least five more years, according to CNN.

I hope you made more than the $60k/yr that the other did. But by the sound of it you made less than that or else you would not have made the comparison..

Hate is a powerful elixir for some people who will hang onto life far longer than one would think possible. Where it becomes that person’s reason for being.

I don’t doubt she will hang on a long as she can, even if she is drooling down her robe, which it appears she is doing anyway.

Cool, because this will let Trump replace someone who will last an extra 40 years, that much later in his second term.

As we used to say in the Old County, “She should live so long”.

As we say in the New Country, “She should drop dead yesterday”.

Inaccurate title:

The text says she “hopes”. There is nothing wrong with hoping.

The word "hopes" comes from the article writer, not Ginsberg. RBG used "think", a presumption, albeit one that admits it is an opinion.
