What happens when RBG kicks the bucket while Trump is Prez and the Senate is blue?

- He nominates a moderate or conservative
- The skyscreamers skyscream and have two choices:

- Delay or refuse to confirm, and the court remains 5-3 conservative through the term

- Confirm, and get a 6-3 conservative court.

Senate won’t be blue so this doesn’t matter either way :)

That's not going to happen in either one of his terms.

House may turn blue but I really doubt the Senate does

If she retires in 2020, if the Dems have the Senate, it’s Biden Rule 2.0.

If you have a democratic senate it's not inconceivable they simply refuse to bring the nomination to committee.

The senate will never be blue with TRUMP but if it was they would never confirm anyone he chose. Zero chance no matter who it is

they are all already saying it should have been THEIR TURN so they get to add 2-3 Justices just because when Eric Holder becomes POTUS and Pelosi grabs her gavel back.

The Republicans may pick up more Senators after the mid-terms. McCaskill and Heitkamp are done for sure. Donnelly doesn't seem like a sure bet, either.

exactly what I was going to say

But to answer the question, that would be the only scenario where I could see Garland get nominated

He nominates Garland?

Or just waits til after the 2020 election to see if he wins and takes the senate back

That is not going to happen, but the answer would be the same as Obama perhaps, Merick Garland?
