No, fuck you. The betterment of the country is bigger than her. She was asked to step down and refused. She fucked the country.

Abortion now illegal
ICE even more protected
More gerrymandering
RIP USPS
Probably bring back some racial and religious discrimination laws
Netured down American History lessons under the guise of patriotism
Rights stripped away from women, gays, minorities
Even more Corporate ass kissing
Republicans even more empowered to be above the law definitely no fair elections from now on

America is done for for any belief other than alt-right chuddery

Is it just a majority?

So a couple Republicans could theoretically stop it?

Filibuster? Incite more investigations and inquiries until January?

Pray that McConnell is forced out of office?

Nothing really. Hope is lost. We're fucked and the Republican Party is going to literally dismantle society for a quick buck.

There is a way without Mitch, but it requires Lisa, Mitt, and Susan to agree to not confirm anyone. (Or another Republican tho I doubt anyone else would join in)

Yes and yes.

It won't happen though. In the worst case scenario for the GOP this seat gets filled in January.

There's no way to exaggerate this. This really is the end of America.

RBG really was the last line of defense against Trump and his plan to turn America into Nazi Germany with an oligarchy. The Democrats do NOT have the power to block Trump from replacing her and thus turning the Supreme Court into his golden ticket to do literally anything he wants. Including invalidating the entire election.

RBG did not fail us. We failed RBG.

And I would just like to say FUCK YOU to the universe. You see, it's actually my 33rd birthday. And RBG dying while Trump was still in office was my greatest fear of all.....

Fuck this shit.
This is hyperbolic, and also basically self-flagellation. RBG can simultaneously be a brilliant and inspiring jurist and also have endangered her legacy by not stepping down sooner: that last part is most certainly not on us.

What this does mean is that the broad systemic issues in our government are going to get worse, potentially much worse. The question before all of this now is this: what is to be done?
In the immediate term, it is vital that Senate Democrats are signaled in no uncertain terms that they should go as far as possible to block any appointment before the election. This will require action in the streets as well as ringing their phones off the hook and flooding their inboxes and mailboxes.

They'll probably disappoint us, because, let's face it: the Democrats have so far failed to grasp how high the stakes are.
And that must be the launch-point for further action.

Probably. The only people with balls are the BLM protestors but the peaceful way honestly isn't going to work for the growing shitstorm that's to come should Trump be reelected another 4 years.
