I think what will enrage the liberals more is when they focus on the fact that Ginsburg could have retired back in 2015 at the age of 82, Obama could have nominated a liberal to replace her and they probably would have been confirmed by the Senate. Instead, RBG probably wanted to hang on until 2017, certain that Hillary would win in 2016 and you would have the precedent of the first woman president appointing the female justice’s replacement. Now, RBG’s timing has achieved the exactly the opposite of what they desired! This becomes the major campaign issue to Trump’s advantage, will probably stir up more city riots, and will hopefully end with the confirmation of a female justice equally conservative as RBG was liberal.

Very insightful post.
It sorta reminds me of the story in Biblical book of Esther where Haman sought to destroy the Jewish people only to end up with his own neck in the noose instead.
What Satan has meant for evil & destruction, God can turn around for good.
