Even if she did, how would you possibly put a citation on that?

Isn't that the fucking point of a living will, signed by yourself and an attorney?

If she was going down hill, wouldn't she release that in writing before mouthing it to a family member?

Even if all that was done, shouldn't one of the 9 most qualified legal minds in america know that statement is kinda political and a burden on the court she sits?

In the case where Trump wins 2020 but somehow chose to respect the wish, should SCOTUS just be with a vacant seat for 4 more years?

If you knew the cheat is on but couldn't hold on long enough to see it, wouldn't a legal scholar find some stronger legal avenue to tie up her own replacement, like simply requesting a month break before a nomination to respect the death of any sitting justice? Couldn't everyone get behind that level of respect?

Instead she says "fuck trump" and dies?
