Revit 2019 + Dynamo 2.0 - Can only delete one node or group at a time with right-click. Delete or Backspace keys on keyboard no longer function for me in this version. Can’t find an alternate workaround for broken copy/paste.

its annoying for sure, so hopefully there will be an update soon, in the meantime I tend to use revit 2018 for dynamo, and then open up in revit 2019 if needed, if you really need use revit 2019 for dynamo there actually are some workarounds

to delete a single node, right click and select remove  
to delete many nodes, Ctrl+G to group right click select Delete Group  
to copy nodes, select copy from the edit menu  
to paste nodes, select paste from the edit menu
