The Republicans control the Senate, but it will be a Presidential election year. Will Mitch table the search for the next justice until after the election like he did for Merrick Garland?

Why worry about seating a replacement?
The court would be 5-3 conservative.

Think about it. Biden was the majority leader, HW bush the president. They could not “agree” on a candidate. Same with Mitch and obama.
This situation is not applicable bc Mitch and trump are on the same page and since Harry Reid changed the rules, repubs only need a simple majority and do not require democrat consent
Dems made rules, repubs are just playing by them

Yep, I did a little reading on it and you're exactly right.

Conservative justices on the supreme court are like my wife's cat is about petting. NEVER ENOUGH!

If he does, will you give him any credit?

Why?
The Demwits will never adhere to the precedent in the future.

DEms only made it a "precedent" because they thought Hillary was a lock.
