Give me a wall, I'll give you a moderate SCOTUS nominee.

^This. The Democrats actually helped pass a law in 2006 that started to build a wall that was then ignored by Obama in 2008. Don't reward them for their earlier failure with more gifts.
That would be a terrible bargain.

David Souter.
(I respect the man as a judge, but he ended up a far different justice than what GHW Bush expected.)
Not necessarily. I think we could go with someone halfway between the most liberal (e.g. Gorsuch) and most conservative (e.g. Pryor) judges on Trump's published list of candidate nominees.
Update on Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg from #SCOTUS: No evidence of any remaining disease, no further treatment required, recovery from surgery remains on track, but she will continue to work from home next week, participating in cases based on briefs & oral argument transcripts.

I for one wish her a happy retirement... which she needs to do before she has no time left with which to retire... she'll barely live to see the end of Trump's first and certainly not his possible second term.I wonder what it feels like to have millions of people so concerned for your health for reasons so totally apart from your well-being.
Not trying to be judgmental, I just think it's interesting.
She should retire and enjoy the rest of what she has left.
SCOTUS Justices aren't real people. It only matters what their individual seat on the bench represents. It's a sad commentary that should'nt be necessary but that's what happens when Justices let politics and party ideologies get their foot in the door.I wonder what it feels like to have millions of people so concerned for your health for reasons so totally apart from your well-being.

She won't.
Because a democrat President can't replace her.

Insert purple if you think it is needed.
Pretty sure DIFI has 43 women lined up who will swear any female candidate proposed by Trump raped them when they were children.
