Critics of Joe Biden have accused him of hypocrisy after he previously stated a Supreme Court justice could be replaced during an election year. Biden’s 2016 comments have garnered attention as Democrats push Republicans not to fill Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat ahead of the election.
In a 2016 opinion piece for the New York Times, the former vice president blasted Republicans for holding up court nominees.
During an appearance the same year, he said if the President consults with the Senate, then a nominee would get his support even during an election year.
