WOW.... never thought this would happen. She's old, lived her life. Now, she can RIP. Now that the seat is empty, its time to fill that voided seat quickly. Just in time, right before election.
Republicans don't get too happy. Even if Trump and the Senate Republicans become hypocrites after what they did to Obama and push a conservative on the Supreme Court, the Democrats already have a plan. Once the Democrats take control of the senate they will control the executive branch and congress and they plan to add more seats to the court and that's within their right. That will keep the Supreme Court politically balanced.
She was a great Justice, in the sense though she seemed to mostly sided with "one side", she didn't always. Could disagree without being disagreeable (Scalia friendship).
She won't be replaced before Jan 2021 - and shouldn't - but the "here's who'd I'd nominate for her place" will certainly be a political football.
Have some faith in Trump. This is one of the few things he’s been consistently good at prioritizing. It’ll get done.
Maybe this is the boost Trump needs to get those intent to "sit [another] this one out"?
