Hey, most everything else they’ve tried lately has blown up in their faces so hopefully this will too but let’s be honest: they damn well know it will drive their RWNJ base to the polls. One retirement (Thomas has LONG been rumored to hang it up and do the same thing at home he does as a Justice: absolutely nothing) would be one thing but if Alito steps down too, they will really try and whip their base into a frenzy with it. I don’t like to link ‘The Hill’ but I’m not going to link some of the other RWNJ sites that are running with it. thehill.com/…
They are in a froth over if of course. So is it a big worry or not so much? Minds much greater than mine in here are welcome to weigh in. While I’m at it...ANY chance of Dems expanding the court if we win big in November? (Presidency and Senate)
