It seems very hard to find reason that there should not be term limits – whether it be for the supreme court or all the way down to Congress. Furthermore, it is very difficult to justify paying retiring members of Congress for the rest of their lives. No other business in the world pays more than a retirement severance pay. Had this been in place, Ruth Bader Ginsberg would have been forced to retire, and Obama could have had the opportunity to appoint a new justice to the Supreme Court. And most importantly, Trump wouldn’t have the same ability to misuse the legal system to his advantage.
Trump destroyed trust within the Supreme Court by stacking it with his own lifetime appointees. Never has it been more clear than it is now, that term limits should be introduced for all government positions.
