She actually passed away like 6 years ago.
Her puppeteers will likely wait to until they get the Senate in midterms, then unplug her. |

Trump has:
1) Scalia - check 2) Kennedy - check 3) RBG - 85 years old 4) Sotomayor - rumored to be very sick w type 1 diabetes, 2 hospital visits this year |

If the story of Russian hacking are true, RBG would have already been dead. https://media.giphy.com/media/47NX7fvI1Js8U/giphy.gif View Quote |

Quoted:
She had colon cancer twenty years ago and then they caught the pancreatic cancer nine years ago when it was very early. Apparently she was getting CT scans because of the colon cancer and they got it way earlier than most. (Think Steve Jobs). I'd have to assume her surgery was simple and she is one of the rare few fully cured. View Quote |

Remember though- Trump loses the senate, and it’s all over- they will obstruct the fuck out of everything until he’s gone.
That’s the new face of American politics. |

If the chips fall just right, Trump could put 5 in and the next two presidents put zero in. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted: If RBG goes, yes, three. In addition, though, Thomas will probably retire soon. Could be four. If Trump gets re-elected, definitely four, and possibly 5 (Breyer). Go ahead and expand the SC to 15. Before the Dems do it! He could pick 8_ 9. Winning!. Do eeeeet! |

Quoted:
If we get a decent conservative justice to replace Kennedy there's really no reason for her to remain. She's old and sick and she knows her influence would be nonexistent anyway. View Quote And there are always the cases where it's not split along the standard left-right spectrum. |

Trump's "reign", OP? He's not a king and you should feel bad for thinking of a president ike that.

My gramps is 85 and he's even said himself that he shouldnt be allowed to ever be a judge because he's aware his cognitive abilities have faded. Not that he'd ever been a judge or anything, he was just bitching about RBG's age and that there should be limits or mental aptitude tests annually for supreme court justices.

The libs will hold her family hostage if she tries to. They would keep her on the bench hooked up to a life support system and a robotic rubber-stamping hand.

Quoted:
Three new conservative SC Justices??? That will be historic if the President can pull it off. If that happens we need a huge dillo fundraiser so NOLO can get some of these anti gun laws crushed!!! View Quote |

Quoted:
If she was to pass away in her sleep in Trump's 3rd year they'd do their best to hold off and "let the next president pick the justice" because of the push to not let Obama pick the one who died in his term. View Quote |

Quoted:
Doubt even RBG seriously believes Trump isn't getting re-elected. The only question is whether she can last until 2024, and that's assuming the dems manage to defeat Trump's would-be successor. By 2028, I doubt she'll be capable of speech, or sitting up unassisted. View Quote |

Retire, expire ,house fire, who gives a rats ass? GTFO!
Dope - Die motherf cker die Then why don't you just fucking die already? And fucking take mcstain with you! |

Along these lines.... what happens if she dies on the bench while hearing a case? I'd imagine both sides would be justified in asking for a re-hearing. How do they resolve a 4-4 tie?

Guys- I worry about Roberts going left or cock blocking 2A cases...even with one or more origionalists on the bench.
He has this quaint view of juris prudence that the left is unbound by. Bent into pretzels saving Obamacare so that he wouldn’t have to rock the boat...or someone has dirt on him. Look at the travel ban. The constitution is clear as day...my 10 year old could understand it...but 4 libs dissented because muh feelings. I love justice Thomas but he should retire and play a part in the replacement justice while he can. Would be awesome for him to preserve his legacy of defending the constitution. |

Quoted:
I hope Trump wins reelection, but there is almost zero chance of GOP keeping the white house after Trump's two terms, assuming he wins. View Quote They've had an easy time of winning because they haven't had to pay for their campaigns -- they've forced the taxpayers to do that. |

Wouldn't it just be ironic if she were knifed to death by an illegal immigrant gay person?

One could hope, personally I think She will hang on til the bitter end or she is forced off by health reasons (it would have to be something major like what McCain is dealing with).

Sotomayor is 65 with type 1 diabetes. Females with that condition have a life expectancy of 68. She’s already had several medical issues this year including a fall that resulted in a broken shoulder. They now have her on an insulin pump.
She will out last RBG but might not outlast Breyer |

I’ve made no secret here of the fact that religious faith plays no part in my life, but I kinda like churches, particularly little, white clapboard, country churches. There’s one down the road from me a bit, and because it’s a little, country church, the front doors to the sanctuary are typically unlocked. It’s a good place to sit quietly and think, something I’ve done two or three times a week for a few years.
Recently, for the second time in my life, I’ve been questioning my belief, or rather, my lack of belief, in a higher power. So, now, whenever I visit my quiet place, in the hope that I have been wrong all these years, I’ve begun praying that, in his infinite mercy, God will call Ruth Bader Ginsburg to her eternal rest. |

Quoted: 5) Thomas has voiced that he wants to retire as well. It could be any day. View Quote He's sick and tired of the court treating the 2nd as a red headed step child. With Kennedy being replaced, and if RBG is replaced I think he'll find a new found enthusiasm to stick around for a few more years. |

So far we have
1. Gorsuch 2. Kennedy's replacement On deck before 2024 3. RBG replacement 4. Breyer- Retires 5. Sotomayer has to retire for medical reasons 6. Thomas retires in 2022, so Trump can replace him. By 2024 we have Roberts, Alito, Gorsuch and 5 other Trump appointees leaving Kagan a long career to write all the dissents by herself. |

Didn’t she threaten to retire if Trump won the election back in 2016?
