For now. The ability of old folks to fight infections is greatly reduced. Even generally healthy old people can have dramatic negative swings from an infection.

CitizenVectron Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 The Senate still sits after the election, right? I can already see a lame duck Senate and Trump appointing a hard-right judge in December if they got the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 8 more months of these rolls of the dice, because the GOP absolutely will nominate and confirm a new justice on the morning of Inauguration Day 2021 if RBG dies the night before.

The initial cause is not overly bad but an infection can easily kill someone at that age. When I was younger, my grandfather died after what initially started out as an ear infection.

thewhyteboar Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 The court should be staggered so that each justice has a term limit (10 years? 18? 20?) and that each president gets to appoint 2. Or something like that. I'm not a math person. Our current system (this applies to so many different aspects of America) is asinine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd still have to figure out what to do with stuff like deaths, but at least they'd be way less likely to die before resigning if they were termed.
