Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away on Friday. She was one of the major leaders of women's rights during the 1970s and has done numerous things to help the rights of women during her 27-year career. While her death is tragic it also carries with it numerous political significance. She was a very heavy hitter for the liberal wing in the supreme court and if President Trump can appoint another justice and if that justice is conservative the conservatives will hold the majority of 6-3. This creates the question will President Trump get a supreme court nominee this close to the election? President Obama was not able to put his nominee in at the end of his term so people are arguing that Trump should not get to either. This will create a very interesting next few weeks in American politics.
