General Discussion

to appoint a Supreme Court nominee. McConnell successfully blocked President Obama's Supreme Court nominee for over a year by refusing to hold hearings or a vote, and it is naive to believe that that they would not have done the same thing if RBG stepped down doesn't cut it, especially given that the republicans had the majority in the Senate from the 2014 midterm election.

I am sorry but that is a false narrative that was used by some who refused to vote for Hillary in the general election in 2016.

In every critical swing state Hillary lost by less than 1%, while Jill Stein received 1% of the vote in those critical swing states.

The result of that disaster was that trump ended up appointing three supreme court justices, plus federal judges such as Canon.

I suspect many who refused to vote for Hilllary in the general election in 2016 did not realize the damage that would done by that lost.
