If this is true, I really hope it's not Kennedy. Replacing Kennedy with a Trumpist would make the SCOTUS virtually never rule left, aside from unlikely cases like Roberts' vote on Obamacare.

As for Ginsburg, IIRC she considered retirement in 2012-4 when Dems had the Senate, but she thought Obama couldn't get an ideologically similar justice past the Republican obstructions in the Senate. Also, while no one would have expected Trump to win, there is a history of the Presidency alternating two terms for each party.

...and did she think that was ever not going to be the case during the remainder of her life?!
