Exactly. The Merrick Garland situation was Senate Republicans utilizing their position of relative strength to lawfully block Garland's appointment. They didn't change anything, they just had the votes and the Constitutional authority to do what they want. Same with ACB.
Both cases were politically inconvenient for Democrats, so naturally they're trying to claim Republicans did something illegal or unethical. But it's all bullshit and they would do exactly the same if they were in that position.
Does anyone honestly believe Democrats would have honored Scalia's "dying wish" if he had made such a preposterous demand as RBG allegedly did? Come on, man.
