You think GOP won't use nuclear option? Why wouldn't they?
i doubt they do it before the 2018 elections b/c it's too political and could backfire
if the DEMs remain obtuse, they could lose a ton of seats again

That would be the absolute dumbest thing the GOP could do. Therefore, I, afraid you might be correct.
You think the left is whiny now? Trump hasn't been in office for 2 full weeks yet. If he continues to do as he promised, it's going to be a nonstop temper tantrum straight to November 2018. We are going to see the most motivated Dem base in recent midterm memory.
The GOP has 2 years to get the tough stuff done. If they don't, they will face an energized left and disappointed right come November 2018 and they might not come out the winner.
Bottom line - when you get the chance to make a SC nomination, you do it. You definitely don't gamble on a midterm election impacting the outcome.

The Republicans will not wait till after the midterms to use the nuclear option. Trump was elected to appoint this sort to the Court. People want action, not more pusillanimous politicians from the Right.
