I think the threads derailed.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was an absolute legend. She fought hard for people . She was discriminated agist so many times because she was a woman so she knew first hand discrimination was damaging. She graduated #1 in her class at harvard law school and applied to be a clerk for the supreme court and was denied because she was a woman. She had to hide her pregnancy at her lower position job because back then it was ok to fire a woman for pregnancy.

She fought for abortion rights,civil rights for African Americans, fought for equal rights for woman, she fought for the poor, fought for gay rights , voting rights and so much more.

This is absolutely devastating loss for the states. The dems can't let Trump fill this position otherwise it will be 6-3 in the court. They can kiss their rights goodbye.
