Well she was appointed by Bill so maybe she isn’t on the Clinton’s Dead Pool list.
That's an interesting question. I don't know how the other Justices feel or what they think. Nor do I know what, if any, process there is for them to review or comment on the competency of any other Justice. I do believe that, under the circumstances, they may may err on the side of excessive caution and refrain from making any comment or taking any action that could add to the political controversy around a Supreme Court nomination. Certainly, any negative comment or move to impeach or remove Ginsburg would be met with a firestorm of outrage from the Media and the Democrats. I think even if she were catatonic though oral arguments or deliberations nothing could/would be done by the other Justices.
Would that action open a door for removal of others....????
Snitches get stitches. Its the Notorious RBG, after all. They're afraid she'll shank 'em.
But seriously, I expect them all to sit there and shut up because they dont want to be in the hotseat themselves later. Call it "Professional Courtesy".

It was pretty close to that situation with William Rehnquist.
This.
...and don't think that they wouldn't be sensitive to the accusation that they were politicizing the court and trying to get Trump another appointment.
....and some day, it could be them.
It may shock some people these days, but it is possible to really like someone on a personal level that you have deep disagreements with.
Yes I do, to a point.
First, she is a colleague to all and probably on friendly terms with many, if not all. After all, don't you have a good friend of a coworker that you might not see eye-to-eye with all the time but you're both human and friendly with one another? It would be hard to do.
Second, no matter what out of fairness you'd want to give a coworker time to get back on their feet and do what they love doing.
However, at some point it will become a malfeasance to "just sit by" when you know someone that can't perform their duty is still in that position. Even the friendly buddy at work has to be reported if they can't keep themselves and everyone else safe. Of course, the other court employees, including judges, just need to have a discussion or two before it is leaked to the press. Then the press will do their just and proper job of investigating a potentially huge issue that could affect countless millions of people based upon certain court decisions.
So I think they would sit by for awhile and then have possibly a discussion or two. After that the media machine will take over and it will be out of their hands.

This is an idea that needs to spread! Almost no one with whom I disagree is an enemy. I have many friends with whom I vehemently disagree but we still call each other friend.
And sometimes, over time, I've actually learned that those I have disagreed with were right, and I was wrong. Shocking I know, but true.
Living in an echo chamber is like being a couch potato. Fun and easy, but no exercise for our mind.

I thought "Professional Courtesy" was sharks not biting lawyers?
