Trump could end up replacing 3, even 4, Supreme Court justices in his first term

>>They will wheel Ginsberg’s dead corpse into chambers before they let her resign.

Chief Justice Roberts should keep court in session for 18 hours a day, 7 days a week...that would do Ginsberg in no time.

Doug Jones is toast in 2020...stick a fork in him.

Who among us hasn’t dated 14 year olds when we were in our thirties?

I don't get that. 14-year-old girls look cute to a 16-year-old boy, but if they still look date-able when he is 18, something's wrong with him.

Roll back abortion and homosexual “marriage” to the states. The feds have no business in those areas anyway.

Only way Ginsberg is leaving is death. No way she retires.

My guess 3 or 4 by his SECOND term.

When we moved to Iowa from California I was 14. We lived with my Aunt and Uncle at first. My older cousins were 17, 18 years old and dated 14 year old girls that you’d swear were in their early 20’s.

All of this will have Ruth Buzzy Ginsberg in an iron lung by the end of week.

If President Trump replaces 3 or 4 justices, in my view he would have the same standing as Lincoln saving our country

There are still many dangers lurking around Cheese and Salsa.

Anything can happen.

Trump has no authority to do such a thing and he would not if he could.

1. Anthony Kennedy...Age 81, Swing vote, Appt Reagan
2. Clarence Thomas...Age 70, Conservative, Appt by Bush Sr.
3. Ruth Bader Ginsburg...Age 85, Liberal, Appt by Clinton
4. Stephen Breyer...Age 79, Liberal, Appt by Clinton
5. John Roberts...Age 69, Conservative, Appt by Bush
6. Samuel Alito...Age 68, Conservative, Appt by Bush
7. Sonia Sotomayor...Age 64, Liberal, Appt by Obama
8. Elena Kagan...Age 59, Liberal, Appt by Obama
9. Neil Gorsuch...Age 50, Conservative, Appt by Trump

Assuming all Trump appts will act conservatively...

• Replacing Kennedy will probably tilt the court slightly to conservatives.
• Replacing Roberts or Thomas won't likely change the court.
• Replacing Ginsburg, Breyer, or Sotomayor could make the court conservative for decades.

• Ginsburg has had colon and pancreatic cancer. And seems to be getting increasingly sleepy at 85. The odds that she will make it through a second Trump term is low.
• Sotomayor has Type 1 diabetes. If they control it they can live pretty normal lives. But she appears a little overweight.
• Kagan has no known health issues.
• Breyer has no known health issues but is 79.

...to which you just review the record of the guy Ebola wanted to replace Scalia.

[lexington minuteman 1775]

Oh Lord, Let is be so.
The last time there was a conservative SUPREME COURT. Charles Evans Hughes was Chief Justice,FDR was President and Hughes kept FDR from packing the court with liberals he tried to get congress to up the number from like 9 -15 justices. GOD BLESS TRUMP for his conservative choices!
VOTE VOTE VOTE increase our Majority in SENATE this may be one of most important facets of the Trump Presidency!

Until they opened their mouths and spoke.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Yeah, there is that. LOL

Survival Rates
According to the American Cancer Society, for all stages of pancreatic cancer combined, the one-year relative survival rate is 20%, and the five-year rate is 7%. These low survival rates are attributable to the fact that fewer than 20% of patients’ tumors are confined to the pancreas at the time of diagnosis; in most cases, the malignancy has already progressed to the point where surgical removal is impossible.

In those cases where resection can be performed, the average survival rate is 23 to 36 months. The overall five-year survival rate is about 10%, although this can rise as high as 20% to 35% if the tumor is removed completely and when cancer has not spread to lymph nodes.

I would bet Ginsberg in a year and another in DJT’s second term.

This is a once in a lifetime Conservative opportunity as the Republic is on the brink. We dodged the Clinton bullet. What comes next from the left will be more than bullets.
