If re-elected then GEOTUS stands to be able to make appointments to replace:

  • Breyer, if he wants to retire and realizes the dems won't win in 2024 either

  • Thomas, if he wants a well-deserved retirement

  • Roberts, after his extortion comes to light and he resigns

  • Sotomayor, she's an obese diabetic

  • Kagan, if it comes to light that she was a go-between in the extortion of Roberts

That's the best possible outcome. The likely outcome is that GEOTUS will get to make one or two more appointments.

I like your optimism. But can't do any of it unless we hold the Senate. VOTE!

True, but in 2022 there's a lot more dem seats up for election.

That's a little over optimistic. I think the best case scenario for his 2nd term is Thomas, Breyer, and Sotomayor. Maybe Alito if he wants.

No way Roberts or Kagan step down.

Kagan would never, true. Roberts, we'll see, as it depends on the nature of the extortion.

Roberts, after his extortion comes to light and he resigns

Unfortunately this is a pipe dream.

Well, I'm going to dream that. And I do dream that. It's a great dream. But the pipe I leave to Hunter.
