Really this should be a bipartisan issue. Lifetime appointments are a perfect fit for ethics violations.

- thrill 3y agoIt already is a bipartisan "issue" - removal of a Justice is an impeachment process.
- warning26 3y agoSure, but that ignores how the process is actually working in practice. The number of successful Supreme Court impeachments (only 1, over the course of more than 100 years) should tell you that the system as-is isn’t working.
- rufus_foreman 3y agoIsn't it the exact opposite? If you need to get reelected every few years, you need some help. It would be easy to compromise. If you don't need to get reelected ever for the rest of your life, why would you compromise?
