Topic: Supreme Court: Clarence Thomas, May Retire | |
---|---|
End of conservative Supreme Court: Clarence Thomas may be next to leave.
EJustice Clarence Thomas, a reliable conservative vote on the Supreme Court, is mulling retirement after the presidential election, according to court watchers. Thomas, appointed by former President George H.W. Bush and approved by the Senate after a bitter confirmation, has been considering retirement for a while and never planned to stay until he died, they said. He likes to spend summers in his RV with his wife. His retirement would have a substantial impact on control of the court. The next president is expected to immediately replace the seat opened by the death of conservative Justice Antonin Scalia, providing a one-vote edge in the court that is currently divided 4-4. Should Thomas leave, that slight majority would continue if Donald Trump becomes president. If it's Hillary Clinton, then she would get the chance to flip two Republican seats, giving the liberals a 6-3 majority. And, conservatives fear, that could switch to a 7-2 majority if Republican Justice Anthony Kennedy, already a swing vote, retires. He will be 80 next year. We recently reported that if Clinton wins the presidency, her majority liberal court could stay in power at least until 2050. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/article/2594317/ Hillary's Supreme Court court would rule for over three decades http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/hillarys-supreme-court-court-would-rule-for-over-three-decades/article/2593702/ |
