Obama and Supreme Court Vacancy

Obama argues that President Trump should nominate someone to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court.

Just dug up this clip of Obama in 2016:

"When there is a vacancy on the SCOTUS, the President is to nominate someone, the Senate is to consider that nomination... There's no unwritten law that says that it can only be done on off-years. That's not in the Constitution text." pic.twitter.com/vrOi3DrkJN

That was 2016. 

 Now, of course, Obama has a different take.
