False. Powell retired in June 1987. All three of Reagan's nominations to replace him were made in 1987.https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/it-doesnt-matter-garland-didnt-get-hearing/ …

Lie, Powell stepped down in October 1987, Kennedy was nominated on 11/30/87, was confirmed on 2/3/88. Reagan was term limited & 88 was an election year. Facts matter to the 62,678,998 Americans (55.4%-House) voted 4 Dems+3rd party in 2018 https://www.senate.gov/legislative/nominations/SupremeCourtNominations1789present.htm …pic.twitter.com/GxsteNQlBo

I made 1 error, Powell did step down in June 87. Please accept my apology for the error
