If he retires in 2022, he wouldn't tell us now.

No need for him to retire, walk away, whatever before the Dems actually lose the Senate (which might not even happen). In the interim, if he dies he'll be replaced by a liberal.

If Dems lose the Senate, Breyer will not be replaced by a liberal until they take it back.

It would be pretty funny to see Democrats pull a lame-duck Supreme Court confirmation, but I don't trust them to pull it off. I think Breyer retires in 2022 for the reason lfromnj said, and Ketanji-Jackson replaces him.

Bumping for no particular reason. Just been on my mind as of late I suppose

Mine too. I was hoping that Breyer would see what was going on and finally decide that it wasn't worth waiting any longer.

But alas, with how everything seems destined to suck, Democrats are going to lose the Senate for a decade and that's when he'll retire, if he doesn't die first

Hey, a lame-duck confirmation would be hilarious.
