If a vacancy occurs near the end of Trump's term I think he should nominate himself.

he needs a pretty long short list, if I was him I would push for Robert, Thomas, and Alito to all retire and replace with younger judges.

Sotomayor is not doing well, should have retired under Biden. However is something unfortunate happens to her I think the dems will either stall any way possible (probably with Collins or Murkowski joining them) or threaten to expand the court

I certainly agree about Scalia. He's WAY too dead to still be serving.

Trump can't appoint anyone because there is an election coming up in 2028...

Fair enough.

Besides my posting here (which gives you good insight into my thinking) the only other thing I can tell you now is that the ladies say I'm handsome.

It's why we can't lose the next mid terms and piss the Senate away.
Our team is getting really old and I suspect Thomas might be in his last POTUS term.

I would be fine with this. Abbott could pick Paxton to take his place in the U.S. Senate. That would make the Bushies' heads explode.

May need to bring in some expert witnesses to corroborate that!

I want a relatively young conservative who can serve for decades.


He's 57. I'd think he would put in 20 years.

Grok picked these judges by most likely.

Top 3
James Ho
Amul Thapar
Aileen Cannon

Others
Andrew Oldham
Kevin Newsome
Neomi Reo
Raymond Kethridge

When pressed for minority women (replacing a minority woman so optics might look better)
Barbara Lagoa (Cuban -American)
Kathryn Kimbell Mizelle (not minority tho)


All district judges or appeals court judges and previous Trump appointees.

No clue who he’ll pick but good chance as any it’s one of them

I don't know why I have a thing where I can see Alito's face and Scalia comes out.
