Gonna be hilarious when Trump gets his fourth Supreme Court justice because another liberal refused to retire when a Democrat was president.

Dems still control the Senate, so McConnell can’t do anything. Sinema could do something though.

Dems controlled the Senate for a while last time too. They were too afraid to use a simple majority to pass through any of their nominations though. 60 votes were required to add someone to the supreme Court, dems had a simple majority and were unwilling to lower because “then the Republicans would use it.”

Lot of good that did

It is 2013. A girlboss refuses to retire from the supreme court and her seat will be filled by the opposition when she dies after the next election.

Translation: We need the threat of her death in office to blackmail voters with at least one more 40-year old Federalist Society Judge to dominate the judicial branch for the next generation, just in case Thomas kicks it and Roberts pulls a Souter.

Time is a flat circle and we’re all trapped by it.
