No.
This is completely not true and neo-liberal juju.
The LGBT got a ton of new rights because democrats, who voted for DOMA in the 90s, voted against it this century due to electorate majorities in key state legislatures and within key battleground states. The fight was won when DEMOCRATS decided to no longer play politics with the rights of the LGBT community.
DOMA was repealed by the Supreme court 5-4. Kagan and Sotomayor's appoitments were the only reasons conservatives had to fall back on this issue. And Kagan and Sotomayor are only on the bench because 1) Obama won the presidency in 2008 (by 10million people); 2) The democrats had a senate majority.
It had nothing to do with the conservative nature dying because the democrats lost the senate two months after Kagan's appointment.
Case opinions
Majority Kennedy, joined by Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor, Kagan
Dissent Roberts
Dissent Scalia, joined by Thomas; Roberts (part I)
Dissent Alito, joined by Thomas (parts II, III)
How you think 5-4 is the harbinger of death is beyond me.
Obama only beat Romney by 5 million votes. He crushed him through the electoral college, but there were only 5 million more liberal voters than conservatives.
Conservatism is going nowhere.
This is why you, Hillary, and the rest of the Democratic establishment didn't see a Trump victory coming. You're stuck in 2008.
