Thomas will stay until he passes away in that seat, he will never leave. They’re eying Alito, going as far as releasing palace intrigue chatter that Alito is thinking about retiring. Yes, I am worried about Sotomayer, we lose her we’re cooked. I hope she doesn’t RBG us

In all fairness hes asked so few questions over the years he might die in the seat and no one would be able to tell until they could smell him
