Cannot figure out why he would take the AG job and ruin his reputation.

(23,688 posts)10. I was going to say the same thing. At 68, GOP doesn't want him
They want justices that will serve 40-50 years. Lock in the conservative ideology for generations. Same way with the lower courts.

(42,714 posts)6. He'll be 69 in a month, and just based on appearances, a good candidate
for a heart attack.
Plus as a SCOTUS Justice, he'd earn $255,000. He was making around 5 times that amount before he became AG. And he has a slew of investments that would become a problem as a SCOTUS judge.
So, no, he's not auditioning for the SCOTUS.

(32,641 posts)7. Barr should be impeached as AG before that can happen
It would be awful hard to nominate him for SCOTUS is he's been impeached.
