Honestly the longer I think about it the harder it is not to be pissed at RBG for not retiring in 2013 Like the nicest thing you can say about her decision is she was wildly overoptimistic

You know you want Roe v. Wade to stay law You know the Republicans want it overturned You bet on the Republicans not *really* wanting it overturned *that* bad and being willing to stay within "democratic norms" even if it means letting the babies get murdered another 10 years

Welp Turns out you were wrong, and they really were willing to do whatever it took to get their way They won and you lost It's not a question of who's a good person and who's an evil one, they succeeded at their goals and you failed at yours

So, she should have "responded" to his action before it happened? I am fully aware of what responsibility means. She could not have predicted what McConnell would do - nor is she responsible for his actions.

She could and should have predicted it was POSSIBLE Because it obviously WAS possible, because it's what happened And if she cared as much about her judicial legacy as all that she should've prepared to protect it from the worst case scenario

Even if Garland had Gorsuch's seat, we'd be in an equally bad position with Kavanaugh and ACB replacing Kennedy and RBG respectively. It's true you can't control what other people do, but you do have an obligation to do what you can do to ameliorate the harm done.
