What is the point of having this discussion? RBG didn’t resign in time. That ship sailed years ago in political time, at least. Shoulda coulda mighta etc. Done and dusted. Really - what is there to be gained by going through the argument when there are so many more pressingly practical issues? One of the “what ifs” of history.
If that is what you want. Except I really do wonder why it gets brought up. I agree she should have resigned earlier but that’s 20 20 hindsight. Maybe it’s an object lesson for future similar situation or a really good argument for term limits for Supreme Court appointments.
Maybe. But I think that a lot of us were just learning what McConnell and the Republicans were willing to do to control the Supreme Court.

Please feel free to ignore what I have to say. I promise to return the favor.
