Yep, you should have resigned? But what do I know, I’m thinking that someone who was a several different kinds of cancer survivor should think about these types of things very closely.
Term limits and age limits…it could prevent AMERICA from demented evil conspiracy groups forming and incompetent politicians who refuse to give up all the bribe monies they collect!
Maybe I’m wrong, but having stopped President Obama’s Supreme Court nomination for ten months, I see no reason McConnell and the Republicans in the Senate would have balked at attempting to prevent President Biden’s nominee(had RBG survived long enough) from approval for four years.
Trump really should not have been able to pick ANY judges for SCOTUS. Besides the one that President Obama should have chosen (BTW, Garland was recommended to Obama by Repub Orrin Hatch) and MM’s reversal to jam through Coney-Barrett, the other was to replace Anthony Kennedy. AK’s son was Trump’s banker at Deutsche Bank; the bank was involved with Russian money laundering. AK resigned to take the spotlight off of his son.
History has often turned on unpredictable and uncontrollable events that have ended a life (or diminished the quality of life) of a key person in a critical position.

We would have been better off with Betty White in the “White” House than the White Supremacists President we got instead. No joke.

RBG should have stepped down earlier in Obama’s presidency (and he proposed) before the McConnell madness took root in the Senate.

Stephen Breyer needs to think about this.

Very sad but very true, Clay.
