And if the democrats can find a good taxidermist and a voice machine, they will try to keep her there for another 5-10 years after she does.
I never expected to hear Owl get on the Trump Train but I'm glad he did. He sees how it is. Keep it rolling Owl.

I'm on the Trump Train for some things (corporate tax cuts, Supreme Court nominees) and not for others. Don't know that I've ever really been on anyone's "train," and at this point I doubt I ever will be.

Shoot buddy, I haven't been on a train since I took one from D.C. to Philly almost 30 years ago.

Nearly got shot by stray gun fire too, lol....

She says Justice Stevens served on the bench until he was 90 (and he's still doing pretty well health wise at age 98!), so she thinks she has 5 more years at least. It won't be that long if we get a Democrat in the White House in 2020, but let's deal with the midterms first.

Does that include nap time during proceedings and Presidential addresses or not?

she is left leaning after all

RBG must stink pretty badly as even Sotomayor is giving her her space by moving to HER left. If she's like my MIL she doesn't like to bathe and probably smells bad.

Hunh.

OP certainly makes it look like wishful thinking on YOUR part.

Hers is just the musings of a rambling, confused old lady. You? Well, now...

I would hope RBG lives to be 125, but she should have retired under Obama. she's only slightly better than 1/3 to live out the first term, and a BIG longshot to make it another 6 years.

I do not wish her any ill will, and while i don't agree with her judicial bend she has served well, is consistent and well thought in her arguments, was and is certainly qualified for her job, and has every right to serve as long as she wishes. I therefore think she's more concerned about justice than politics, or she would have retired 3 years ago.

Wouldn't it be funny if RBG got so senile on the SC that she unwittingly became the swing vote to overturn Roe vs. Wade ?

Unlikely. She has a terminal case of TDS.

This is what happens when one believes he owes nothing to a higher authority...........tomorrow is promised to no one, not even you, Ginsburg. Of course, the left can always go this route if she drops dead before the end of Trump's second term.

I'm convinced that she's already dead and stuffed, but instead of a voice machine they have Sotomeyer put her arm up her ass and use her like a hand puppet.

Here's an interesting "what if"

What if she dies 4 months before the 2020 POTUS election. Will all the left demand that Trump name a successor and hold hearings before the election?

RE: Great news - RBG has at least 5 more years on Supreme Court
It will be interesting to see if she doesnt do a William O Douglas repeat/impression. Will was fine -- until he wasnt and very sudden.

RBG detests Trump; she will hold onto the seat like Gollum did with the ring to keep Trump naming her replacement. Nothing at all wrong or improper for her - but that first stroke post-80 is a ***** as Douglas found out....
