      Barack Obama isn’t currently blaming her for her own death. What were your opinions on her in 2013?

      Why do you think Obama suggested to Ginsburg in 2013 that she resign? What was his thinking there?

      We’re not talking about that, we’re talking about people on Twitter right now. You don’t seem interested in engaging with that.

      I confess I think Obama is more important than people on twitter.

      Again, we’re not talking about what people were saying in 2013, we’re talking about right now.

      I think what people, especially powerful and wise people, thought in 2013 is important for understanding the current conversation. I don't like this Obama erasure.

      Well my tweet wasn’t about them. You should respond to a tweet that is about them, of which this was not one.

      I think your tweet would be better if you engaged with what thoughtful people like Obama believed rather than twitter randos who have zero real world influence.

      To what degree is anyone addressing what Obama actually said? Or are these just inferences about what "must have been thinking" given that we have a vague general knowledge that he conversed with her about retirement?

      In other words it’s a “person with knowledge of the situation” based hypothetical?

      This is the same logic Trump supporters use to dismiss reporting they don't like.

          I am simply asking what the story is based on as I am not familiar with it. I don’t agree that it’s comparable to Trump supporters’ dismissal of inconvenient stories.
