Electoral implications of SCOTUS confirmation before November 3rd

Does this help or hurt Trump? I would be a bit concerned that conservatives might think they've won the battle and thus don't have to turn out anymore, and enraged liberals would be even more driven to the polls. But, on the flip side, maybe the liberals would be so demotivated that they wouldn't turn out as the defeat set in. I do think Trump needs to get Biden on the record on his stance on court packing. Boxing him in on that issue could help keep SCOTUS focused conservatives marching to the polls to prevent the Democrats from trying to pack the court.

Helps him.
Deflates liberals if anything.
It also is going to take away from Covid which is the biggest issue Dems are pushing.
This like the riots in August elevated Trump.

I don’t care if he replaced every current liberal judge before the election, there is no way anything is keeping me for going to the polls and voting for president Trump.

If the Senate confirms Trump's SC nominee I would put it in the win column. The only way Trump loses this election is through mail in voting irregularities and other Dim voting shenanigans.

Helps for sure

The lasting change a 6-3 SCOTUS can make means I dont even care if it hurts him tbh
Posted on 9/22/20 at 9:56 am to GeneralLee
Anything that takes COVID out of the spotlight is a win for Trump

I think filling the seat before the election takes away something for Dems to vote for. I would not think someone motivated to vote due to being upset is as powerful as someone motivated to vote for something. I would assume the latter would be more likely to vote.

Your concern is noted. It seems to note a whiff of fear though.
Thanks. Have a nice day.

Why would your scenario not work in reverse?
Perhaps the liberals don't go to the polls because they don't have to turn out anymore.

Not sure pick will be appointed before election but it will be before January

Looks like the game plan is to have ACB confirmed by end of October if I had to guess. They are really going to fast track this and avoid the lame duck session.

If anyone is voting for Trump based on him being able to pick SCJ over Biden, it will help motivate them. This will give him his 3rd in his first term, and there is a chance for 2-4 more in his second term.

The left on DU* are angry but grasping. It has been fun to watch the RINO's break their hearts one after another. They are all discouraged and seem to think that Nancy has some magic arrows she promised.
I look forward to drinking a fresh round of tears when those arrows never materialize. They are angry but totally demoralized.

there are going to be multiple SCOTUS reviews related to Voting and Election security .... rulings that are needed PRIOR to the election.
Today, those rulings would likely be decided on a 4-4 split, forcing the Decision to follow the ruling of the Lower Court ...
This is why the RBG replacement is urgently needed ....

It has to be done, it's the last line of defense. I don't know when she would begin working on the SC but hopefully soon because this election will be contested if it's close, and the dems are going to put everything they have into stealing this election. I think it actually galvanizes the right into thinking we have the SC, now we need to make sure we keep the senate majority, try to get house majority and the presidency so people can start going to jail and being hung for treason and sedition.

Dems will show their arse during the confirmation hearings. That didnt play well the last time they did it. Kamala going out there and trying to attack the character of an innocent female justice will not play well with voters.
They will also be going full crazy on court packing and "burning down the system" while Biden winks and nods at the radicals.
Once party will have the constitution on their side, the other will just have "dying wishes" and "they are hypocrites" as their argument.

They won't be able to help themselves. Enough of their party leaders will come out with the threat of packing the court. That will not play well with the middle of the country. Changing the rules when you lose is not a popular look. I totally agree. Slam dunk the fresh justice in ASAP. Nothing pisses the left off like following the rule of law.

helps as we can't have 4-4 after the dems contest the election and make them recount the pregnant chads.
