Possible Justice Kennedy retirement would give Trump opportunity to tilt Supreme Court to right

Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy might retire from the bench as early as this summer, a GOP senator said, and if true, President Trump would be able to nominate a justice who could tilt the nation’s highest court well to the right for the foreseeable future.

"I believe that we're going to have another Supreme Court justice this year," Heller said. "I think that Kennedy is going to retire some time early summer. That being the case, Republicans are going to have another opportunity to put another Supreme Court justice in place, which I am hoping will get our base a little motivated."

I certainly don’t know how much more time the US has to be a considered a republic or for that matter be around . . .but now is the time to pray for God to remove from and appoint to the bench His choice(s).

Breyer is in his 80’s too. Ginsburg has been in bad health for years. Get rid of Kennedy along with those two, tge Liberal block of the court will only be the the Wise Latina and the Bull Dyke.

I’ll believe it when it happens. If Kennedy retires, the Left will blame him for handing the Court to the Right, and he would face intense hatred,along with his family. Especially when the democrats think they might have a chance of taking the Senate in November.

In the early 80’s i worked at a Showcase Cinema where my buddy steve worked in the popcorn room making huge bags of popcorn like that.
At the end of the night what ever bags that were not opened and sold were thrown in the dumpster.
Often times me and my friends would grab them and take them home.
yum....

And if Ginsberg would just freakin retire or die, then Trump could change the face of this country for 2 generations at least.

Another issue out there is Sotomayor. She is seriously diabetic and over weight. If her health deteriorates she may have to resign.
