Trump gleefully predicts death of two women on Supreme Court

By Matthew Chapman | October 16, 2017


One of Donald Trump’s only clear wins as president was getting far-right extremist Neil Gorsuch onto the Supreme Court after Republicans stole the appointment from President Barack Obama and his brilliantly qualified nominee, Merrick Garland.

Trump has also placed many other fringe radicals into the lower courts, despite Democrats managing to block a couple. And if Justice Anthony Kennedy decides to retire in 2019, Trump could get another Supreme Court pick.

But according to a report from Axios, Trump has told White House sources he expects to appoint not one or two Supreme Court justices, but four.

Specifically, he believes he will replace two of the women — Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor. When asked why, he proceeded to body-shame the two justices:


“Ok,” one source told Trump, “so that’s two. Who are the others?”

“Ginsburg,” Trump replied. “What does she weigh? 60 pounds?”

“Who’s the fourth?” the source asked.

“Sotomayor,” Trump said, referring to the relatively recently-appointed Obama justice, whose name is rarely, if ever, mentioned in speculation about the next justice to be replaced. “Her health,” Trump explained. “No good. Diabetes.”.................................






Trump expects he will get to replace two women on the Supreme Court because one of them is too skinny and the other is diabetic.

Kennedy still has not hired clerks for the next term, and has privately told applicants he is considering retiring after this current term. Thomas is also rumored to be looking to retire, but this been talked about for a few years now.

Do you catch his underlying motivation?
He focuses on physical imperfections: weight, health.

Obviously he cannot legally fire them, esp, now that he publicly has used appearance and health as an excuse.
