The argument doesn't work. It was during an election year with a lame duck POTUS.
This is completely the opposite of that.

Republicans filibustered Obama's SCOTUS appointment? Which one?

Civics lesson: you don't have to filibuster something that doesn't have enough votes to pass.

Trump didn't do anything to them.
I don't think this will work out well for the democrats.

How many justices did Obama successfully get onto the SC again?

"well the republicans did it to them so it's only fair. As much as I hate to say that."
Do you mean not bringing Garland up for a vote? Or do you mean an actual filibuster? It's really not the same thing, though I can understand someone viewing it as a tit for tat.

Not exactly. There was an election that was about to take place.

Everyone, take note...I am about to criticize a potential Democratic filibuster of a SCOTUS nominee.
What the GOP did with Garland is BS. Democrats filibustering a nominee because "they did it" is BS. Take the nominee and thoroughly vet them. If they suck, then anchor him/her.
