I am not happy that Antonin Scalia is dead but

I am happy he died before his dementia and/or Alzheimer's became so apparent that he was impeached.

Recent statements and citing his own opinions in a contrary way has lead me believe that he, like Reagan, was in the beginnings of serious mental deterioration. No one should have to be so humiliated as was Ronald Reagan after he left office and lost his handlers.

I remember in his post presidency congressional hearings seeing him being slightly disheveled and not being able to identify his own chief of staff. "I don't know the man," is the answer I recall when asked who Howard Baker was. As much as I detested the man, no body deserves that sort of public exhibition. Thankfully the hearings were mercifully short after that performance and thankfully Scalia was spared the same.
