“Gives him a benign reason to resign”

Bingo we have a winner. When the current term of the Scotus ends he will retire after he rolls on a previous president and his wife.

Struggling with the stress of one’s conscious can also cause similar effects. Sounds like the Justice needs to step away and let someone with a stronger constitution (or moral fiber) to step in.

Or just someone who is not obviously being blackmailed to point out the obvious.

"Why should I believe the NYT?"

The Washington Post was the first to report the fall, the third such episode for the leader of the Supreme Court"...(source: "USA Today" which also reported on it).

I researched this before posting, as I don't trust the NYT either.

It would be a shame if the president were forced to replace the chief justice with a real conservative. /s

“VERY important everyone utilizes the link on # 16 above to get the full context regarding Chief Justice Roberts recent fall.

Wow !

Hmmmm... 13 years ago he had an “idiopathic” seizure and 14 years before that he had another idiopathic seizure. Interesting. Maybe he’s good for another 13-14 years before his next fall.

From the Wash. Examiner:

Usually such seizures can be controlled, although a very small number cannot be. People who have them are advised not to drive, to avoid heights and not to swim alone.

-—It might be a good idea to recuse himself from being 1/9-th of a group whose opinions screw up the lives of 320,000,000+ people, too. (I can think of some other 1/9-ths who are in the same boat.)

I looked up Roberts' bio. When he was appointed to the Supremes, his net worth was $6 million. He took a million dollars a year pay cut when appointed.

Where did he make his money? For years he was a DC lawyer with a high-powered, well-connected law firm.

These guys in the Swamp make money beyond belief. Alan Dershowitz has a net worth of $25 million....and he ain't done yet !

I’m sorry to hear that. I was hoping to read that he fell in front of a speeding bus.

I predict that shortly after 01JAN21 that both “Notorious RBG” & CJ Roberts will retire & will be replaced with TWO Constitutionalists, when DJT is sworn-in again for 4 more years.

MAGA, MAGA, MAGA.
