A biden win this election probably results in a 5-4 liberal court

Maybe, but Thomas and Alito may hang on just out of spite

Neither Alito or Thomas will retire under a Dem presidency as long as they breathe bsky.app/profile/saba...

Under Biden's presidency, of 41 appointees to the US Circuit Courts of Appeals (5 await confirmation), only 4 are GOP to Dem flips, of which 2 are due to deaths and 2 due to retirements (there are 179 seats total) Biden also elevated a Trump appointee following retirement of a G.W. Bush appointee

And if Alito or Thomas were to die under a Dem presidency with a GOP senate majority, they'd likely hold the vacancy indefinitely
