If president Trump gets reelected, he’ll almost certainly replace Ginsburg (85 years old) and Breyer (79 years old).
Maybe Justice Thomas would retire in 2020 to give Trump a chance to replace him, as well. He’ll be about 75 years old. Alito is not far behind him in age.
If it all played out like this, we could get this country back to where it was before Roe vs. Wade, or better.
Honestly, I could imagine a 7-2 majority, especially if Pence wins after two Trump terms.
“If president Trump gets reelected, he’ll almost certainly replace Ginsburg (85 years old) and Breyer (79 years old).”
How long do these people think they are going to live? You would think that they would want to retire and enjoy life for awhile before they give up the ghost.
As is often said: “Nobody wishes they spent more time with their business when they lay on their death bed.”.
