I’ve never understood why Supreme Court Justices want to hang onto power for so long. Instead of retiring with the Republicans in a position to replace them with a more conservative judge, they hold on until the Democrats get back into power. Makes no sense to me… Thomas is 78 and Alito is 76 btw.

Probably because they see who the last "conservative" picks were.

Still better than what a Kamala, Newsome, AOC, or Buttigieg would try to install

Give me 9 ACBs any day. She is an awesome Justice. She is unpopular with the MAGA sect because they expect slavish devotion to Trump and his agenda, rather than to the Constitution.

If either one of those justices croaks you’re now gonna have Schumer run that process.

Search far and wide. Show me 2 judges you would put in over them. You can’t. They both clearly know their own health and could see it was possible that they would need to hang on for 4 more years. The thought of pushing out the best 2 justices is crazy. They stood their ground and held firm through the clown shows of the past. They’ll continue to hold firm.

Unless they hold on too long. Father Time is undefeated.
