He's another reason to vote out Trump in November because he will probably be looking to retire or will probably have to work himself to death during the next 4 years to try to avoid having his seat filled with ANOTHER right-winger!

And if everybody wants or needs another reason for 4-8 years of Biden/Harris, Thomas' seat could *potentially* come up as well during that time, which could help shift the balance of the court back towards the center. While Thomas would probably not purposefully resign under Biden, he may still get sick and be forced to retire and/or pass away since he *is* getting up there in years. If Trump wins, he would likely retire and Trump would get yet another pick.
