The Senate has to confirm the president's picks. The Republicans controlled the Senate during Obama's last years in office. So they just didn't confirm his pick. Their reasoning was that it was an election year. When Trump faced the same situation (supreme court vacancy in an election year), the Republicans still controlled the senate and confirmed his pick.
