Ginsburg:
She wrote a statement to be released after her death demanding that "her" seat not be filled until there is a new president.
That statement illustrates her fundamental and overwhelming misunderstanding of The Constitution, the document which it was only her job to interpret. It's not, nor has it ever been "her" seat. The seat belongs to the People of The United States of America; she was only confirmed to sit in it until retirement or death. Death.
No justice, party, or president has ever maintained control of a seat on the
Supreme Court in perpetuity. The fact that she thought herself entitled to
control it illustrates her absolute disdain for The Constitution as written and
for all those who proceeded her, as well as for the citizenry who choose the
person that names her successor. She is not a trailblazer; she was someone who
had a complete desire to force us backwards into being controlled by a ruling
class. I don't celebrate her death, but neither am I compelled to genuflect to
someone who I firmly believe made us, by example, very much a lesser and much
more selfish nation.
