RGB should have retired under Obama.

Provided, of course, that RBG's proposed retirement had been far enough away from the end of Obama's term that ol' Turtleface McConnell couldn't block the hearings.

I wouldn't put it past the evil snapping turtle to have figured out some way to have blocked hearings at any point regardless.

Even McConnell wouldn’t have blocked 2 appointments back then.

I don't think she believed that he'd get a nominee past McConnell.

RBG, May her memory be a blessing, loved her job and didn’t want to step down. Period. It was as simple, and selfish, as that.
