Any reason McConnell can't do a quiet canvass of the Republican senators, make sure they know what's going on, and then announce to the Senate, "Clarence Thomas is retiring, as soon as his replacement is confirmed. President Trump nominated Allison Jones Rushing yesterday. I'm scheduling 3 days of televised interviews, followed by 2 days of discussion and debate, and a confirmation vote the following week. Be there."
LOL! Biden could make vastly more money not being president (at least for the time he may be in office.) If he survives his term, he could do very well as an ex-president (look at Obama.)
He wont last a year. kami will get him 25th Amendment out
I hope all the RINOs who didn't like or support or vote for Trump remembered the adage "be careful what you wish for" The US is in deep ****!

As long as we keep the Senate, McConnell can do exactly that

Corporate boards, speaking engagements, lobbying, book deals, etc.. Lots of ways for former officeholders, especially well known ones, to make money. A well connected former senator / senior congresscritter, can likely make high six to seven figures as a lobbyist.
i suspect he wont. word is this new court with Barrett on it, will now be the "Thomas Court".
He is about to be the guy deciding what the Courts direction is and what the word "constitutional" means.
and He is serious about it.
