Far-Left Calls for SCOTUS Justice Sotomayor Retirement Reveal Dems Believe in Trump Victory.

*** begin quote ***

Democrats are increasingly calling on Justice Sonia Sotomayor to resign from the Supreme Court before the 2024 presidential election, suggesting a widespread belief that former President Donald Trump will win.

Sotomayor is 69, a lifelong diabetic, and the oldest liberal member of the court. Should Trump win the election and Sotomayor need to retire in the next four years due to her health, conservatives could secure a 7-2 majority.

*** end quote ***

Maybe each President should get to select one Justice in each term.  Nine justices times 4 years is a 36 year term.  Seems like “lifetime” is impractical in today’s life spans.  So, stagger their terms.  Each President gets to pick one.  Still have the problem of death, disability, and retirement,  but it would be better than the chaos that we have around election time.

And, I’m not so sure that a 7-2 conservative majority is a sure thing.  Given how the justices seem to be all closet liberals.

Sigh!
