Ok so is there really anything wrong with Sonia Sotomayor's physical or mental health?

Or is it just racism and misogyny that their party veteran insider white man gets a pass for 5 years of red flags but a Latina is told she needs to retire at age 70 after only 15 years on the Court?

She has diabetes, but that's not a death sentence, especially when you're wealthy.
