US Supreme Court: Is life tenure too long?

Since US President Donald Trump took office he’s had the chance to replace two Supreme Court justices, and he’s choosing younger conservative voices which could affect rulings for decades. And with justices now serving in to their 80s, it’s worth wondering why they don’t have limited terms or a mandatory retirement age? Joining us at the Roundtable is Russell Wheeler, visiting fellow at the Brookings Institution; Gabe Roth, Director of Fix The Court; Carol Gould, author and broadcaster. Roundtable is a discussion programme with an edge. Broadcast out of London and presented by David Foster, it's about bringing people to the table, listening to every opinion, and analysing every point of view. From fierce debate to reflective thinking, Roundtable discussions offer a different perspective on the issues that matter to you. Watch it every weekday at 15:30 GMT on TRT World.
