Ginsburg was appointed to her Supreme court position in 1993 by the then-president Bill Clinton, and now that she is late, her position is open for a successor.
However, there seems to be a bone of contention regarding Ginsburg's wishes to be replaced when a new president was elected. Presently, President Donald Trump's nominee is gearing for the voting exercise on the floor of the United States Senate.
