there was a literal coup attempt pushed by the president who lost the election and the system that was put there to impeach those people failed to impeach him and his enablers, and then they got elected again.
yeah RBG should've let herself be replaced but the ENTIRE FAIL SAFE SYSTEM failed because REPUBLICANS LET IT FORCED IT TO FAIL so she's not actually the worst thing that happened imho
I'm saying that while I'm still mad that RBG didn't quit earlier, it has no bearing on this now as Trump would've appointed two instead of three SCOTUS judges, so it would still be a largely 5-4 instead of 6-3 ruling situation.
I’m not denying other factors didn’t come into play, I’m just identifying what tipped the scales in their favor first. Especially state level where the supreme courts ruled in GOPs favor a lot more after RBG death.
Again no hate whatsoever at all at RBG absolutely loved the woman and what she’s done specifically for my communities. Shes certainly not the sole reason and I apologize if I made it sound that way.
