    With the benefit of hindsight we know RBJ should have stepped down sooner, but realistically the last opportunity was in 2014. Blaming her (and the democrats) entirely, but not blaming the republicians who blocked Obama’s nomination is like blaming an abuse survivor for what happened to them, and not the abuser.

      She died in 2020 of old age. How much foresight do you fucking need. She should have stepped down and a lot of people were telling her that.
