Alright, so this is a pretty self explanatory title I think... Just wondering under what circumstances would/could a President appoint themselves as the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court? Who would be most likely to do such a thing?
I suppose just appointing themselves to the Supreme Court as an Associate Justice is worthy of discussion, too.
It's not entirely unprecedented in American politics for an executive to appoint themselves to some other branch of government. I suppose the most obvious example is a Governor appointing themselves to the Senate, but this idea is something altogether different.
