  • I don't think Vice Regent Trump will allow that.

    Personally I don't think he has enough years in as an active attorney to be a member of the SCOTUS.  He was only an active attorney from 1993-2004 and was a State Senator from 2000-2004.....  That only 7 years.

    And Obama has said he is not interested as late as 2014.  

    CNN contributor Jeffrey Toobin asked Obama about it in a The New Yorker interview in 2014.
    "When I got out of law school, I chose not to clerk," he said. "Partly because I was an older student, but partly because I don't think I have the temperament to sit in a chamber and write opinions."
    He added, "I love the law, intellectually. I love nutting out these problems, wrestling with these arguments. I love teaching. I miss the classroom and engaging with students. But I think being a justice is a little bit too monastic for me. Particularly after having spent six years and what will be eight years in this bubble, I think I need to get outside a little bit more."
