32. Over 1,000 law professors don't think he's fit to serve
Fri Oct 5, 2018, 10:22 AM
Oct 2018

Retired Justice Stevens doesn’t think he’s fit to server.

Numerous classmates and acquaintances have already come forward stating that he is lying about his alcohol use and blackouts.

I truly don’t know whether it’s better for him to be defeated or seated and then be prosecuted for perjury.

A lot of light will be shed on how corrupt the repugnant goons are if he’s seated AND the Democrats get a majority in the house
