I think the biggest Miscalculation was Ginsburg and Breyer not retiring during Obama’s term.
They thought Hillary was such a sure thing that it wasn’t a risk at all.
Big mistake. If one of these two kick the bucket, the Libs will not have any Court power for 30 years.
Ruth Buzzie Ginsberg could now be a mummy stuffed with straw for all we know. Propped up in a sleeping position.
Same goes for Maverick John McCain.
Ginny will either have to die at her post or die hated by all the left.
‘Rats are already talking about packing the court when it’s their turn.

It ain’t necessarily so. Dhimmi theoreticians are already making plans to “pack” the Court — as done by Lincoln and as tried by FDR — once the Left is back in power.

Because, you then might expect to replace Breyer as well. On top of that, Thomas is expected to retire fairly soon, and replacing him with another conservative who is younger, will help ensure the majority for many years.
Thomas is getting really old, the next president will likely replace him if Trump doens’t
Although the odds favor her being in reasonably good health for some time (she seems to for the most part be managing her Type 1 diabetes well) Justice Sotomayor appears to be a bit of a risk for the left, too...
Better yet, if BOTH of them croak...just thinking about the possibilities!
Autopsies will be “in” again.
