[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 3171544, member: 7248"] At least people are lining up to keep her alive and breathing with the offer of their own ribs and organs.

She has beaten pancreatic and colon cancer, the two deadliest forms of the disease. People, especially younger people, were offering the octogenarian affectionately known as RBG their own ribs on social media Thursday morning. They even started the hashtag #RibsForRuth on Twitter. Do they need rib donors? Because she can have mine. Right now. [URL='https://twitter.com/hashtag/RibsForRuth?src=hash']#RibsForRuth[/URL] I love how every person under the age of 30 on Twitter is currently offering [URL='https://twitter.com/hashtag/RuthBaderGinsburg?src=hash']#RuthBaderGinsburg[/URL] their ribs and any other internal organ she might need. People headed to the hospital to give Ruth Bader Ginsburg one of their ribs Support for Ginsburg, and also concern for the balance of power on the Supreme Court, also poured in on social media after the court announced her fall. Please take care of yourself, Justice Ginsberg. You are our guardian angel. A nation sends its collective wishes for your health and full recovery. Dear sweet Jesus, please PLEASE heal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Please, Lord. Our nation NEEDS this fierce warrior for Justice. Please make her whole in Jesus' Name...Amen! Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s office should be lined with pillows until 2020. “Ginsburg broke two ribs in a fall in 2012.

Should Ginsburg or any of the other three liberal justices step down while President Donald Trump is in office, that crucial advantage at the highest level of the judicial branch of the U.S. government could grow even larger.
