I suspect that RBG is trying to hold on until next years when the phony BIDEN rule takes effect.
It is a rule without teeth, and from what I can see, has no merits. We as conservatives, can invoke it if we wish, or not, because there is really nothing there. Just because we used it once to our advantage does not mean we shouldn't ignore it when it stands in our way.
That my dear is an Alinsky.
Use it.

Ariel Sharon fell into a coma after suffering a stroke and was kept alive on life support for 2 years. I fully expect the same to be done with RBG, and her leftist clerks will just write her opinions/rulings for her. The lamestream press will demonize anyone who insists on “proof of life”.
I say nominate someone who agrees to sit in the seat for 1 year. That way we can renominate whenever we have the majority. Let the left be in perpetual constipation.
... demand that she show up IN PERSON for rulings....
