He is already preparing to nominate a 2nd Justice when Kennedy retires.
Now we look to Breyer and Ginsburg and their advanced age. If they pass away (god forbid), or steps down due to infirmity...can they last 2 to 6 more years? Could Trump actually appoint 4 (!) Justices? Of course, that depends on the republicans keeping the house and senate.
What do you guys have to say? Should there be a limit to how many Justices a POTUS can appoint?
RBG should have stepped down during the Obama Admin (and NOT in the last year). Obama should have had that pick as RBG has been falling asleep on the Bench and therefore incapacitated for meeting her Judiciary responsibilities for over 10 years. Was she just too stubborn to do so? A bigot, so she wouldn't give Obama that chance?
Quote:
"In March 2006, US Associate Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was reported by Associated Press to have fallen asleep for about 15 minutes during oral argument in the Court’s review of a controversial Texas redistricting plan directed by Rep. Tom DeLay, R-Texas, in 2003. Ginsburg apparently had difficulty staying tuned into the details of the hearing: They reported that “the subject matter was extremely technical, and near the end of the argument Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg dozed in her chair. Justices Souter and Samuel Alito, who flanked the 72-year-old, looked at her but did not give her a nudge.” The Court’s sketch artist drew a humorous picture of the hearing, featuring Ginsburg with her forehead planted firmly on the bar in front of her seat."
Both parties are to blame for nominating the wrong candidates. Hillary had way too much baggage but she did have foreign experience and knew how government works. But she was not well liked. And the only other choice was Bernie. Republicans had a much better field to choose from. Yet you chose a narcissistic reality star with no experience who alienates our allies and praises the dictators. Not very American
LOL, actually R's nominated the perfect candidate. Probably the ONLY one who could have beaten Hillary.
Without Trump we'd be sitting here talking about how drugged up Hillary is with her new back brace and who's she's sold favors to this month.
After 8 years of Obama, Trump is exactly what America needed.

The Democratic party thought Hillary had this what with all the inner workings going on to bring Trump down not to mention all the illegals voting along with dead people.
They thought she had already won and would be appointing the next SC judge. They are still recoiling.
I don’t want a possible Traitor nominating anyone. Let’s wait for the results of the investigation. That’s like letting Putin nominate our Justices....
The radicals certainly will have to pay for what they have destroyed over the past five or six decades by using the Supreme Court to pervert God's ways. So, it's possible that the God of the Bible could allow Trump to appoint multiple Justices to tear down the radicals' evil doings.

Since the Trump administration is under investigation, he shouldn't be allowed to nominate anyone until the investigation is over. But the supreme court needs to be balanced so it represents all of us
I would suggest the Democrats blew any chance of that by not supporting Gorsuch. Had they got behind that nomination they would have more leverage for this nomination.

Let's DONT wait for the results of a witch hunt. Mueller already said multiple times as did Comey that Trump is NOT UNDER INVESTIGATION. So knock off the "possible traitor" BS
