I thought Johnson said he won't run for a third term. If he retires, Democrats will have a much easier time flipping that seat, and might even flip it in a Democratic midterm.

Oh, sorry. I forgot to add "retiring" in that sentence, lol.

Risch
Durbin
Roberts
Inhofe
Alexander
Enzi
I think McConnell convinces Collins to stay for fear of losing her seat in a presidential year

2022:
Shelby
Isakson
Grassley
Burr
Johnson
Leahy I feel like is the kind of guy to go for one more just to have the title of longest-serving Senator of all time

Isakson has said that he will run again in 2022 but a poster from Georgia responded that it's doubtful considering his health problems.

Definitely McCain if he is somehow alive.
I think 2020/2022 will probably be a really good year for Democrats due to a long string of Republican retirements.

I sure hope Durbin doesn't retire. He's the best senator I've been able to vote for. By a lot.
