Obama met her when Democrats had a majority, and IIRC obliquely inquired/suggested that she retire and she brushed it off.
- AnimalMuppet 3y agoIf I understand correctly, court tradition is that only a Supreme Court justice can suggest to another that it is time for them to retire. Obama may well have been right. But the suggestion should have come from one of the other liberals on the court. (And it may well have, for all we know. But we wouldn't hear about it one way or the other.)
