that would be horrible. to give trump(or any singular president) the chance to personally choose more than half the court should be against the law.
This would be absolutely terrible news. Trump would get to fill 2 more Supreme Court positions with super right wing conservative that will hold just ruin the country worse then they already have.
From the article:
President Donald Trump hopes U.S. Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito remain on the bench, he said on Monday in an interview.
Politico’s Dasha Burns mentioned that Thomas is 77 and Alito 75 before asking: “Do you want one more [justice] on there?”
“Uh, well, I hope they stay ’cause I think they’re fantastic, OK? Both of those men are fantastic,” Trump answered.

You know that expression, “It could always be worse”……. Yup, this scenario would be the ‘worse’ part. The Mango Mussolini being able to solidify two young MAGAt justices would be one of the final nails in the Nation’s coffin.
The court is already fucked. Reform is necessary to fix it. That won’t happen in the current climate, though climates do change.
Congress could do some reform without a constitutional amendment, though they could just as easily undo those reforms.
I like the idea of 18 year Supreme Court term limits. The constitution states judges are lifetime appointments, but it doesn’t say which federal court.
After 18 years in the big chair, they are shuttled off to one of the circuit courts and the current president can nominate a new Supreme Court justice.
Its a part of the plan and has been since they published project 2025
This is why Dems absolutely need to win the Senate in 2026
This is exactly what we were trying to prevent in November. Instead, a corrupt pedophile gets to stack the court with his creatures for an entire generation.
This is why getting the Senate is so important you could indefinitely block the appointment till the next president.
We live in the worst timeline
Unfortunately going to happen since it makes sense because the Republicans could be wiped out in the midterms.
People on all sides need to wake up that this isn’t just today or tomorrow or next year or even 10 years, this country is fucked for longer than a lot of us will be alive.
Doing what RBG should have done
As much as i hate these two clowns this would be absolutely disastrous. Trump would put some even crazier (and younger) right wingers on there.
Come on, dickbags! Hang on 3 more years!
Imagine. Replacing these dinosaurs with 2 30-something magats would make presidential elections irrelevant for the next 30 years.
So now these old fucks start wanting to retire alive?!
Senate must approve. It could get another centrist which would be a major improvement over Alito.
Problem is you have Senators like Susan Collins who is worse than worthless. And Fetterman who is turning out to be a right asswipe. Both of them will likely rubberstamp another flunkie.
We can’t seat new judges so close to an election. We should let the American voters decide. Something, something rules for thee not for me?
Impeach Thomas
Impeach Kavanaugh
Great. Trump will have personally installed a 5 seat majority, all 60 or under. Fml
Thanks RBG! Is there anyone else in history who’s made more of a positive impact on society and then absolutely ruined it at the end of their lives?
If Democrats hold the Senate and hold hearings for any Supreme Court nominees under Trump, the entire party should just disband.
Just a reminder that the far left was saying that using the Supreme Court as a reason to vote for Hillary wasn’t important and that sending a message was what really matters.
Dude if he gets two more, the first person to promise they’ll expand and pack the court gets my vote. I don’t give a shit anymore. I’m not doing this „we have to wait for thirty years for these partisans to die“ bullshit anymore. This shit needs to be directly targeted and removed as part of the legal record, so much of this courts landmark decisions are contractory to the precedent that I believe it constitutes both negligence and incompetence, but also perjury for those that voted against upholding Roe vs Wade. They all said they’d do something they decidedly didn’t do, under oath.
Well, in order for the country to actually stop marching toward fascism, we need actual real and effective judicial reform.
It really doesn’t matter who retires when, it has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Judicial Branch, and specifically the SCOTUS, is neither an effective check to Executive power nor is it able to „self regulate“
I don’t think anybody could be worse than Thomas and Alito. The three Trump picks are actually less hardline than they are.
At any rate, SCOTUS is completely corrupted. The only solution for Democrats is to pack, pack, pack. The Republican justices have shown that precedent means nothing, so I don’t want to hear any complaining when their terrible decisions are quickly reversed.
I said it once and I’ll say it again. SCOTUS should not be a for life position considering people are living to a much older age.
I guess Aileen Cannon will get her spot for her loyalty.
This is why, if we’re into the Constitution, we’ll observe that nowhere in it does it mention 9 justices. Once this clown is out, and sanity is restored, we need to pack the court.
