President Donald Trump expects to nominate a total of four Supreme Court justices, claiming that three seats will likely become vacant during his first term, anonymous sources told Mike Allen of Axios.

Trump expects to fill the seats of Justices Anthony Kennedy, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Sonia Sotomayor in addition to nominating Neil Gorsuch, who Trump nominated to fill former Justice Antonin Scalia’s seat earlier this year. Scalia died in 2016, well before Trump took office.

She’s had type one diabetes since she was a kid in the 1960s. That’s a really long time to live with that disease and, while diabetics live a lot longer than they used to, their life expectancy is still significantly shorter than the average and they tend to develop serious health issues at a younger age than usual.

Sotomayor is only 63 and has Type-I diabetes, so she’s lived with that diabetes for a long, long time. I don’t expect that to be much of a problem.

The Wise Latina, brain dead Constitution denier Ginsberg and Wishy-Washy Kennedy replacements would be great.

Who knows whether Ginsberg is still alive. During a break, someone should hold a mirror under her nose.

I am surprised she hasn’t keeled over already.

I think she has and they are just propping her up like weekend at Bernie's...

Hubris on the left... their 24 by 7 Trump hatefest leaves him with no reason to compromise on any SCOTUS pick. Will be glad to see Darth Bader go far far away.

Sotomayor is diabetic, so do your part and send her several pounds of marzipan for the holidays.
