He will be confirmed because forcing the nuclear option isn't an option for the Democrats.
1st) the so called nuclear option is ALL the constitution ever required.
2nd) if the democrats force it then everything in the Senate will change to simple majority except for the constitutional requirement of 2/3 Senate for a constitutional amendment
3rd) The democrats will go nuclear for everything anyway once they get the majority again. The cat is already out of the bag
4th) The Republican's would be fools not to use it because of 3.
5th) The Republicans have already shown they are willing to go the path of simple majority in confirming Trumps cabinet members.

I don't neccesarily like the simple majority being enogh to confirm a Justice, BUT given the fact that we know that those on left are going to sue every single time Trump even looks at them askance, we MUST make sure we have a conservative majority on the Court.
Do what you must to get him confirmed.

Per the Constitution 2/3rds vote also needed to approve treaties or to impeach.
