[QUOTE=JohnR;1145690]There is a good chance DJT could have 2 more judges over the next few years. If high 70s to mid 80s are the benchmark for SC Justices retiring we will use 80 years old as a benchmark for Justices to retire. Interesting thing - how many of you plan to be working hard and flat out at 80? So these numbers are probably very optimistic as to how long these people will last.
How long to reach 80 years old:
John Roberts - 17
Anthony Kennedy - retiring now
Clarence Thomas -10
Ruth Bader Ginsburg - (5) Yes - she is Eighty Five now in 2018
Stephen Breyer - now
Samuel Alito - 12
Sonia Sotomayor -16
Elena Kagan -22
Neil Gorsuch -29
How long to reach 75 years old:
John Roberts - 12
Clarence Thomas -5
Ruth Bader Ginsburg - (10) Yes - she is Eighty Five
Stephen Breyer - (5)
Samuel Alito - 7
Sonia Sotomayor -11
Elena Kagan -17
Neil Gorsuch -24
New Justice - say 28 years
Ruth Ginsburg is 85 & has cancer
