She did make that decision. Some say that she wanted to swear in the first female president.The way I see her dying wish is if it was so important she should have retired while Obama was in office. She made a bad decision (on her part) to keep going so her “wishes” are not really important at this point.
Her own granddaughter says that Ruth wanted a woman to name her replacement.

Hubris kept her from retiring when Obama could have named a nice leftist woman to replace her.
And who could blame her? After all, everyone knew that rube Trump didn't stand a chance. Right?
I like to think that she spent every day since Trump was elected knowing that he was going to name her replacement.
It makes me smile.
