Former President Donald Trump's potential return to power has sparked speculation and debate over potential retirements on the Supreme Court. The focus is on Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, both in their mid-70s, with conservatives anticipating their possible retirements within the next two years.
On the left, hopes have been reignited for a retirement by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, the court's senior liberal, under the Biden administration. However, any potential retirements would not shift the current conservative majority on the 6-3 court but could solidify its rightward trajectory for years to come.
