"Plus he’s not yet 50..."

So....?

What Are The Preferred Qualifications Of A Supreme Court Justice?

The Constitution does not say that a Justice must be American born, a certain age or hold any particular profession before being selected. However, most Justices tend to begin their tenure while in their 40s or 50s and may remain with the court as long as they wish or until they are impeached for improper behavior. Most Supreme Court nominees are personal acquaintances of the sitting President.

that’s a good thing.
these associate justices stick around almost forever.
RBG 27 years.
I won’t be around to see it all, but 27 years of Cruz on the SC would be a good thing.
