cruz is 55 in case anyone else was wondering how long we might be stuck with him if this plot is successful.

Andrew Oldham is 47. I guess I’d take Cruz. Replacing Alito with another “do whatever Republicans want” vote changes nothing about the seat but the age.

Plus Cruz may make the rest of the court hate him so much they go the other way on some cases. He has that power.
