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

And that, frankly, is all we actually needed

it's unfair to apply that hindsight. of course it looks obvious now. but there was *no way* to know

They could and should have made a replacement in the lame duck. They had ~55 days after they had formally lost the Senate.

We could conceivably have had Pam Karlan, who would have been everything Ginsburg was in her prime (most importantly, the best civil rights attorney in the country), plus the first openly LGBTQ Justice.

I‘m not big on blaming a woman who was incredibly good at her job for not retiring rather than blaming the laziness of voters for letting Obama & the rest of us down for blowing off midterms. Also ahead of RBG in a blame line are those who ignored the known risk to SCOTUS in 16.

This. I am about blaming people who decided to sit on the sidelines in 2016 when Hillary clearly said SCOTUS was on the ballot.
