Republicans at least had enough nuance to differentiate the two appointments. With proper context is a presidential election for lame duck president versus a midterm.


It bothers me that Republicans got away with completely redefining the term "lame duck" to suit their needs and everyone just accepted it.

Lame duck means the period after the election but before the next president has taken office. It doesn't mean the last year of a term or whatever period of time is deemed "close enough" to election.
