I also don't wish any of them ill but when they leave for whatever reason, I'm glad Trump is there to put another conservative on the court and chances are at least 2 more won't last to the end of a 4 year Trump administration.

Goodbye Obergefell v Hodges, Lawrence v Texas, Roe v Wade, and Engle v Vitale.

Trump has no integrity whatsoever.

Why should she be held to a higher standard than him?

So, basically... all the old farts of America (as Trump is their demigod) want to skew the SCOTUS for the next 30 years, even though most of them won't be around that long.

Check.

Way to care about what the youth of America want.

I hope they all live to be 120, and outlast Trump.

Me, too. This was a critical election to win for the conservatives, and Thank God, we did. MAGA

Who cares what they want? I'm young and I know most young people vote for idiotic reasons or are basically single issue voters. Ok in favor of raising the voting age

It was skewed left-wing for 25 years. The left did not care that the conservatives felt their voices were unheard.

They are about to win the culture war. I think within the next ten years we will see the following changes.

1) Marriage equality overturned
2) Roe v Wade overturned
3) Establishment clause only applies to federal government, so Oklahoma for instance could become a Baptist state, Utah could become a Mormon state, etc.
4) Prayer returned to schools, likely dependent on whatever faith the state chose as the state religion
5) Lawrence vs Texas overturned (homosexuality recriminalized), Russia-style anti-gay law will be passed soon after
6) Non-discrimination laws pertaining to race and gender overturned
