Democrats, while better than republicans in this regard, are also to blame. It is not one or the other.

How so? The judiciary is stacked with compromised individuals. the republicans did this.

  • Obama should have picked a replacement for RBG. Biden and the democratic congress should have done more to get the judiciary back in line. They had their opportunities.

    • Obama did pick a replacement for RBG: Merrick Garland. Republican Majority Leader Mitch McConnell refused to even give Garland a hearing arguing it was "too close to the presidential election", even though Obama's term had about one year to go.

    • Obama and Biden should have done more. But they are not responsible for the malicious and calculated mess that has followed.

Nah, it's really just Republicans doing all the corruption these days at the SUpreme Court. Unless you can provide some decent examples of Democrats. You seem to be bothsidesing the issue when McConnell stole multiple seats.
